Pot Roast

Ok so this is my all time FAVORITE meal, it is so easy and PERFECT for a Weekend dinner. I just throw it all into the crock pot before major hoiliday shopping, set it on high and let it cook for the 4 hours :) Then when I get home, make some rolls and let it cook for another 30 minutes to an hour on low. Then eat and eat until you can't eat anymore!

Roast

Carrots

Potatoes

Oil (for browning)

garlic salt

onion powder

salt and pepper

Pour a tablespoon or so of oil into a skillet, sprinkle some of the onion powder, garlic salt(just a little), salt, and pepper into the oil, brown all sides of the meat. Put into the crock pot. Peel carrots, wash potatoes and cut in half if large, or if they are small you can keep them whole. Put water half way up the meat sprinkle more salt and pepper and a little more onion powder. cook for 4-5 hours on high! mmmmm seriously SO good!

 For Gravy, get all of the meat, carrots, and potatoes out of the crock pot then strain the drippings into a sauce pan. I add a cup or 2 of water with beef bouillon (or you can use beef broth) depending how much gravy you need. Add about 1/4 cup of flour or 2 TBS cornstarch to cold water until it is smooth, pour it into the gravy and boil for a minute until it is thick. Add salt to taste!
