Cook your rice or egg noodles....... 

 

I put mine in a healthy sized bowl.   I slice about 7-8 cherry tomatoes in half and let them soften just a bit in the gravy.   Hotsauce...Pepper sauce.  A little extra s&p........

Red Wine(optional)

I make something similar to this.  I use a couple of slabs of cream cheese instead of your soups.  I then add onions, mushrooms, salt and pepper, curry powder.  The red wine can be used to marinade your meat before frying.  The alcohol will break down the meat and make it more tender.
