This beef and cabbage stew is a very good recipe. My 93-year-old mother-in-law has recently told me that this is the best meal I have ever brought her, and there have been many. All the veggie prep can be done while the onions and bay leaves are simmering. I do add more broth when the veggies go in. The cabbage will add a significant amount of water but the beef flavor is key. It will freeze great in resealable bags for a quick meal so I normally double the recipe when going to this effort, which in my opinion is well worth it. The 2-hour simmering step for the beef can be done the day before.

1 ½ pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cube beef bouillon
2 cups beef broth

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
4 cups shredded cabbage
2 potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 celery ribs, sliced
1 carrot, sliced
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

Directions

Cook and stir stew meat in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat until browned on all sides, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Stir beef bouillon into beef broth in a bowl until dissolved; pour over stew meat. Add onion, black pepper, and bay leaf; cover and simmer until stew meat is very tender, at least 2 hours.
