This was great! I substituted Campbell's condensed onion soup for the beef broth to add more flavor. I also omitted the cannelini beans this time, as I served over noodles. The beans will be great, however, especially for a hearty stew on a cold, winter day! Try this recipe--you won't be disappointed.

This was delicious! Perfect for a cold night in. I couldn't find canneloni, and so I used Great Northern Beans, and I also added water where it called for wine (my husband doesn't like the taste of wine in food), but it was wonderful!

Great recipe!! I used chicken stock instead of beef because it is msg-free and I substituted a few potatoes for a can of beans. My family loved it, even my toddler and preschooler at it all!!!

Very Good! The only thing I might do different next time is use only 1 can beans and throw in some potatoes. I really missed potatoes in my beef stew. But this was fabulous even when going by the recipe.

Not awful but nothing special. Tastes like everything else that comes out of the crockpot.

This was a huge hit at my hunting camp this past fall. Its hard not to make a meal that the guys won't enjoy but they all requested that I make this again next season!! Great recipe and great taste.

This was really flavorful. Hubbie can't have salt so I used some low sodium vegetable base mixed with water for the beef broth. I also used low sodium fire roasted diced tomatoes. Not a fan of beans in stew so I left those out. The broth for this is really good.

This is very good! I noticed at the last minute that what I thought was a can of seasoned diced tomatoes was actually seasoned tomato sauce, so I used that. I replaced the beans with frozen peas and added some baby red potatoes. I did add a few shakes of sea salt (for the potatoes), coarse ground black pepper and 1 tsp. of liquid browning sauce. DELISH!

What a delightful change from the heavy gravy from the typical onion soup beef stew. Still very flavorful! I wish I could have used the beans as I love them and it's kind of the point of the Tuscan theme but my husband won't eat them. I used baby red potatoes. I followed the recipe with the exception of fresh garlic, a half quartered onion and extra carrots.
