I really liked this, but no one else did. But could have been because we had other good food to eat. I think they didn't like the mushrooms. Maybe next time don't do as much. I think I ate all the leftovers. I did use just the meat and put on top of chips for nachos. Kids did like that (Scott was gone).
This recipe makes 2 freezer meals, 6 servings each. It's been around for a long time and originally called for red wine. I have used apple juice with good success. If you choose to cook with wine, during the cooking process the alcohol "cooks out" leaving a distinctive, delicious, flavor behind.
Ingredients
- 4 pounds stew meat, cubed (I did pork since it was so much cheaper)
- 4 (10.75-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
- 4 (4-ounce) cans sliced mushrooms, with liquid
- 1 cup apple juice or red wine
- 2 (1-ounce) packet dry onion soup mix
Instructions
Divide the cubed stew meat and add to 2 resealable gallon-sized freezer bags. Add 2 cans of mushroom soup, 2 cans of sliced mushrooms with liquid, 1/2 cup of juice or wine and 1 packet of dry onion soup mix to each bag. Zip closed. When ready to eat, remove a bag from freezer and thaw in fridge for 24 hours. Cook on HIGH for 6 hours or LOW for 10 hours. Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles.
