Recipe Talk

I'm looking for a really easy beef stew recipe from the 1970's. I don't recall whether I found the recipe in a magazine, newspaper, back of a can label, etc. I think it has something to do with Del Monte canned veggies (new potatoes, tomatoes or sauce, etc.). Mostly, I remember how easy it was to make and how tasty it was. As a 20 or so year old, I was quite pleased with myself after making it!

Thanx!
