This is one tasty dish! The house smelled heavenly while I was in the oven. I have made this for "Freeze It" tag to see how it stands up to freezing. Over all it freezes pretty good. I prepared the recipe exactly as directed. Being single, I served myself a helping with some crusty french bread. After the dish cooled down I ladeled it into single serving containers to freeze. Re-heating--I allowed the container to defrost in the frige and re-heated in the microwave. The texture was not quite the same as the freshly made bourguignonne (it seemed to thicken up), but it was still tasty.
