Beef, Bacon and Mushroom Stew

We fixed this last week, and it was incredibly good! I felt that it needed to be served over something so I had it over egg noodles. Jan ate it with a little sour cream on top. Either way, it was a hit!

1 1/2 pounds of lean beef tips (could use stew beef)
4 slices of Canadian style bacon, chopped
12 pearl onions...could use more
4 cloves garlic
1 cup red wine
1 cup tomato paste
2 cups water
2 beef bouillon cubes
3 1/2 cups mushrooms
1 can green chili peppers

cut meat into one inch cubes. Coat a large pan with cooking spray, heat and cook onions, garlic and meat until the meat is browned. Stir in wine, tomato paste, water and bouillon cubes. Simmer covered for 45 minutes. Stir in mushrooms and chile peppers. cook for 10 minutes more. Stir in bacon. Serve and Enjoy!
