Mom's Gone All Day Stew

1 can tomato soup (or can of tomato sauce)

1 cup water

2 pounds stew meat

carrots

onions

potatoes

celery chunks

2 beef boullion cubes

1 tablespoon italian seasoning

1 bay leaf

Mix all ingredients in roasting pan. Bake at 275 for 4 - 5 hours or more.

You can use a bag of baby carrots or cut up brown potatoes but I find it a lot more flavorful to cut up whole carrots and use small red potatoes.

This recipe always reminds me of Sundays in Mendon! So good!
