Roast

My sweet husband threw dinner together this particular Sunday and he did a great job!  The only thing I’d do different is make some gravy for the potatoes, haha!  I like to get my roasts at Sams Club or Costco (they have a 2 pack) and then I cut those in half and then we have 4 different meals.  I like chuck roasts, but that’s our preference.  Other sides we do are jello-o, rolls, or corn.  It just depends what we have on hand.

Roast

1 chuck roast

1 pkg Lipton onion soup mix

1 cup of water

If I put it in the crockpot I put it on high for 4 hours.  I prefer to put it in the oven though, so I cut 2 large sheets of tin foil.  I use a 13x9 pan and one sheet goes length wise and the other goes opposite.  I put the roast in the middle and add my soup mix and water.  Then I roll the foil up one way, then the other.  Then I bake it at 350 degrees for 3 hours.  

A variation to this for an even easier meal is to throw it all in the crockpot including carrots and peeled and cubed potatoes.  If I do it this way I usually add 2 soup mixes and 2 cups of water.  I then cook it on high for 4 hours, or low for 8 hours.
