7 ALL-AMERICAN POT ROAST

This was very easy and quick to get into the slow cooker, it only took
me a few minutes. It was delicious. Everyone loved it, including Devi,
my 1 year old grand-daughter. The meat was melt in your mouth
tender and the vegetables were surprisingly good for frozen.

I served it with the sauce over the meat instead of in a separate bowl. Next time I will use fresh baby carrots and red potatoes, cut in half.

I served it with "Broccoli with Almonds" (also from SLOW GOOD)
I will definitely make this again.
