I love when dinner turns out as good as I imagine.
After talking with the wine guy at Kroger, he suggested this bottle to make a beef burgundy-type dish.
The cherry flavors in the wine really came out and it was a great one to use in dinner and to have along side.
I used some local beef to make a quicker version of beef burgundy – it had all the “typical” ingredients:
- beef
- pearl onions
- cremini mushrooms
- bacon
- red wine
- beef broth
We served ours over some whole wheat Israeli couscous and some snow peas on the side.
Nothing like a hearty meal after a long day of work and a good run!
We did 3 miles today and my legs felt like lead. Overall, it was a pretty good run.
I’ve got some stuff to prep for tomorrow and a crazy puppy on my hands. Nick just gave her a bath, and she always goes nuts for about 15 minutes afterwards. I don’t know why, but it’s pretty funny :)

I just opened a bottle of Pinot Noir and I’m loving it also. A nice fall wine! :)
Great job on the run but I totally understand the lead legs feeling.
I’m sipping a glass of Pinot Noir right now as well. Delicious!
Looks great!! I love cooking with wine… it makes everything taste better!
That dinner looks incredible! I’d say anything involving red wine is a good thing.
I love when dishes come out as good as if not better than planned! I have a saying…”I like to cook with wine…and occasionally some makes it into the food” ;) TRUTH!
That sounds fabulous! And I love cooking with wine when you end up with leftover wine to have with dinner :)
Do you do snow peas raw or do you cook them–if so, how? Sorry, random question. I am trying to figure out something else to do with them :)
These were just steamed with some garlic and salt!
Looks delicious! I’ve always wanted to try my hand at beef burgundy.
