Rustic ingredients deliver fantastic results in this warming, filling cabbage and beef stew. The beef and vegetables get velvety soft during braising to create a meaty, unctuous stew that nourishes the body and soul.

This is one of my favorite meals since I don't have to stand over the stove or dirty a lot of pots and pans to prepare it. With six in the family, we have enough dishes to wash after each meal!
