The bacon - a classic ingredient in a French-style beef stew - has been dropped from this recipe. But it doesn't trade a juicy beef chuck for tougher rounds, even though chuck is a bit fattier. Instead, a lot more vegetables, like fresh mushrooms, carrots and frozen peas stretch the meat. Recipe is from Good Housekeeping.
