I prepare this delicious main dish several times a month. The herbs and vegetables give the beef an excellent taste. My husband, Jack, a real meat-and-potatoes man, even enjoys the leftovers, which isn't always the case with other dishes. -Christel McKinley, East Liverpool, Ohio

We enjoyed this dish. I did think that it could have been cooked less time than indicated as the potatoes were a little mushy and the meat was slightly overcooked; but these are easy adjustments to make for next time. I was out of onions, so I substituted a can of French onion condensed soup for the beef broth. It worked out well.
