A simple and delicious meal cooked in foil packets, perfect for a cozy family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Lay out sheets of aluminum foil on a flat surface.
Use heavy-duty foil to prevent tearing.
Place portions of the beef in the center of each foil sheet.
Cut the meat into even pieces for uniform cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, and water.
Mix until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Pour the sauce evenly over the meat.
Ensure the sauce covers the meat for maximum flavor.
Top the meat and sauce with the carrots, celery, and potatoes.
Arrange the vegetables evenly for consistent cooking.
Fold the foil over the ingredients and seal the edges tightly.
Leave some space inside the packet for steam to circulate.
Place the foil packets on a baking pan and bake in the preheated oven for 1.5 hours.
Check one packet to ensure the meat is fully cooked before serving.
Carefully open the foil packets and serve the contents on plates.
Be cautious of the steam when opening the packets.
