Slow-Cooker Beef Burgundy

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Cook: 7-1/2 hours YIELD: 8 servings.
Tender cubes of beef are braised in a wine sauce with savory vegetables. I made this slow-cooker beef burgundy often when I worked full time. It’s good over noodles or mashed potatoes. —Sherri Mott, New Carlisle, Indiana
