Betty's Rich Beef Italian Casserole image

Chunky pieces of beef cooked in a rich Italian styled tomato sauce. Serve with creamy polenta or mash with crusty bread and steamed veggies. Perfect on a chilly night. I have baked this and used the slow cooker/croc pot. If using the croc pot use only ONE tin of tomatoes.
