    You could probably come up with a really fancy name for this recipe if you wanted to, but it really doesn’t need one – the whole point is a simple, no-fuss meal that doesn’t need to play dress-up.

    Slow-braised beef chuck with some simple seasonings takes a while to cook, but the actual prep is very fast, and it goes perfectly with a plate of simple roasted vegetables.

    Beef Cubes With Roasted Carrots And Mushrooms

    To add some color to the recipe, go for a bunch of rainbow carrots (those are the ones that come in orange, yellow, and purple, and sometimes even red) – they all taste basically the same, but the visual effect is great.

    This is a great recipe for budget-conscious cooks because chuck is one of the cheaper cuts of beef, even grass-fed. It’s not great for cooking at high temperatures like a steak, but when you braise it like this, it gets delicious and tender, and it’s just as tasty as the more expensive cuts.

    And you can use it for leftovers, too; try cooking double and just “serving” half of it directly to your lunchbox for tomorrow. It's barely a minute of extra work, and you'll have a healthy lunch all ready to go in the morning.
