One of our favorite winter dinners is braised beef with creamy polenta. This dinner defines comfort food in our house. The beef takes awhile to cook, but there's actually very little "hands-on" time, and the polenta cooks up in just a few minutes, so it's actually a super simple dinner to put together. The great thing about using a large cut of beef is that we have delicious leftovers for a few nights or some to throw into the freezer and pull out on one of those nights that anything more than reheating doesn't seem like a viable option. The beef is slowly braised with carrots, onion, garlic, thyme, bay and 1 full bottle of red wine! Sure, it's a lot of wine, but it makes for the most tender, the most deliciously amazing braised beef. Bon appetite!
