A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

3 pounds boneless beef chuck
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons garlic, minced

1/2 pound mushrooms, quartered
1/4 cup flour
1 cup dry red wine OR beef broth, grape juice, or tomato juice

Trim the meat of all fat and cut into 1-1/2-in. cubes. Heat the oil in a pressure cooker until very hot. Toss in beef cubes and cook over high heat, stirring often, until browned on all sides. Add garlic, onion and mushrooms; stir. Sprinkle with the flour and stir to coat evenly.
Add the wine, tomatoes, olives, thyme, bay leaf, cayenne and saffron. Bring to a boil, stirring. Lock lid and bring to full pressure. Reduce heat, maintaining pressure, and cook for 20-25 minutes. Naturally release pressure. Pour the beef into a serving dish and sprinkle with the chopped parsley if desired.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
