pot roast

here's my super yummy, fool proof pot roast recipe that you can enjoy any day of the week - no matter how busy your day might be!

3 lb. beef roast
2 envelopes onion soup mix
2-3 lbs. of your favorite veggies, fresh or frozen, cut into chunks (we like carrots and broccoli)
1 lb. russet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
6 c water
4 beef bouillon cubes

place veggies and potatoes in bottom of crock pot. place raw roast on top. pour water over all, then add bouillon cubes. sprinkle w/ soup mix. cook on high 4-6 hours. roast will fall apart when done.

* tip: use a crock pot liner for easy, no mess clean up!

variation: pour 2 family sized cans of cream of mushroom soup over the meat and veggies, as well as 1 soup can full of water. season to taste.

*for freezer: freeze AFTER cooking. this will keep well in the freezer for a while, so if you make a large roast, divide it into meal-sized portions and place in freezer bags.
