Lazy + Delicious

I live one block away from a grocery store.  This is awesome.  My husband likes it too because it's a grocery/liquor store.  Kidding- sort of.  This particular store (rhymes with schmainbow) often has deals where you buy one chuck roast and get a free bag of carrots, onions, and celery.  Buy a bag of potatoes, and you've got an easy crock pot dinner.

Slow Cooker Pot Roast (serves 8)
Ingredients:
-1 chuck roast (mine was about 3.5 pounds- you can go up to 5 pounds in a crock pot)
-8-10 large carrots, cut in half
-7-9 potatoes (gold or red are best, and really, just cram as many veggies as you can into the pot)
-5ish small (2-3") yellow onions, cut in half.  Or buy 1 large onion.  Your call.
-1 can reduced fat cream of mushroom soup
-1 packet McCormick pot roast seasoning

Directions:
-Trim the visible fat from the meat. 
-Dump soup in the crock pot, add 1 cup water and seasoning.  Stir well.  Place meat in the pot and cover.  -Cook on 3-4 hours on high, or 8-9 hours on low.  I like to add the veggies (plus one more cup of water) halfway through so that they don't get too cooked. 

Oh yeah- we use this holiday bowl year-round.  It's not that I am obsessed with Christmas (ok, I am), but it's just a nice shallow bowl.
