Forget About it Pot Roast

Although I may have posted this before, the hectic week before Easter is a good time to remember you can get a meal on the table without too much time spent in the kitchen yet keep the family happy and fed.

FORGET ABOUT IT POT ROAST
(all you need to worry about it is the salad!)

1 beef roast, weight depending on size of crock pot)
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 packet dried onion soup mix
1 cup red wine or 1/2 cup wine and 1/2 cup bullion

Mix the liquids together and pour over the meat. Set crock pot on low and you should have a tender beef meal by evening. Serve with garlic bread, buttered noodles, or rice.

Somehow, it is comforting to have the main dish cooking away on it's own while you pursue more important things like quilting, reading . . . okay, cleaning house and laundry!
