I had so many requests for this recipe that I made up cards to hand out every time I serve it at a get-together. My husband and son think it’s world-class eating!
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour

1 boneless beef chuck roast (3 pounds)
1-2/3 cups water
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed tomato soup, undiluted
1 envelope onion soup mix
1-1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
Directions:
1. Sprinkle flour into oven bag; shake to coat. Place in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan; add roast. In a small bowl, combine the water, tomato soup, soup mix, Italian seasoning and garlic; pour into oven bag.
2. Cut six 1/2-in. slits in top of bag; close with tie provided. Bake at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat is tender.
