  1. This recipe is great,very easy to do,good to make when you are very busy. I didn't add the Jalapeno as My DH doesn't care for them.Thanks Dorothy for posting the recipe.
     
  2. I have this same recipe from my 1973 Betty Crocker cookbook. The only difference is mine doesn't call for the Jalapeno pepper. We all thought this was a good recipe and the gravy is very tasty too.
     
  3. This gets a 5* review for sure! The soups made a fantastic gravy, the vegetables still had tons of their own flavor, and the meat was so tender we didn't need a knife to cut it! I did want to mention that I used round steak in place of the chuck steak, but aside from that I made it exactly as written and would not change a thing. Thanks so much for posting your recipe, it is a true winner :)
     
  4. Rave reviews, Husband loved it, asked for this to be made more often. Simple I had my 13 year old son make it while I was at work. Wonderful flavor! I used baby carrots and they worked great. Make it, you'll love it!
     
  5. in response to an earlier posting, lots of us don't have the money to use any beef but chuck steak and high fat hamburger; we also are repulsed by how fatty it is, but that's all we can afford. i think this is a wonderful recipe, and have made it many times with fantastic results. thanks derf for sharing this wonderful recipe!

  2. This was so easy to throw together and was such a great meal. Loved the minimal clean up as well. I used cream of chicken soup instead of cream of mushroom but otherwise followed the directions. Great for cheap cuts of steak! Tender and flavorful!
