Forget About it Pot Roast . . .

Monday always seems to have a slow start after the weekend. Sometimes, our creativity is definitely lagging yet the spouse and offspring still expect dinner come the evening. Here is an easy way to get through the day yet look like the efficient mother/wife! I've probably posted this in some form or the other before but, hey, there might be one of you who needs a helping hand today!

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!
