I love slow cooker recipes!  They make dinner preparation so easy.  This rich and delicious roast is perfect alone or with gravy or made into a sandwich.  

My new cookbook is available at schools, businesses, hospitals, and book fairs in cities across the United States.  Be sure to pick up a copy or two, when you see them.  They make great gifts!

Slow Cooker French Dip Roast

1 large onion, sliced
3 pound beef chuck roast, fat trimmed
1 (1 ounce) packet au jus gravy mix
3 cups cold water

In slow cooker, place sliced onion in the bottom.  

Top with roast. 

In medium bowl, combine au jus gravy mix and water.  Mix well. 

 Pour over roast.  Put lid on slow cooker. 

 

Cook 9 to 12 hours on low. 

To serve as a sandwich: After roast has cooked, shred, and place on rolls.  Serve with au jus gravy.

To serve as a roast with gravy: During the last hour of cooking, in a small bowl, combine 1 1/2 tablespoon corn starch with 1/4 cup cold water. Mix well. Add corn starch mixture to slow cooker.  Cover.  Cook remaining hour.

I love this easy recipe!  I chop the onion and trim the roast the night before and place them in the refrigerator.  For a hassle free morning, I also set out the slow cooker and a medium bowl along with the au jus gravy packet on the kitchen counter.  Then before I head out the door in the morning, it only takes me 2 minutes to put it all together.

I love this recipe!  It is so easy to pop it in the slow cooker and be out the door in under 5 minutes.  You don't have to brown the roast, making it a super quick recipe.

We had lots of company last week, which means it was a good time to develop and test recipes on my friends!  This recipe was a big hit with them.  With the weather being so hot, I loved how I could fix a delicious meal for them, without heating the kitchen, or spending a lot of time preparing lunch.  Less prep time, means more friend time!

Lynn's Rockin' Roast

Lynn's Rockin' Roast

3 1/2 to 4 1/2 pound roast
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (1 ounce) packet dry onion soup mix
1 1/2 cups (12 ounce can) cherry cola or regular cola
1 onion, sliced thick

Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.  Place roast in slow cooker.  In medium bowl, combine mushroom soup, onion soup mix, and cherry cola.  Mix well.

Pour soup mixture over roast.  Pepper to taste.  

Arrange onion over top.  Cover with lid.  

Cook on low 8 to 10 hours. 

This recipe came from a listener of my "Fast Food Friday" show on the Passion Radio Network.  Lynn, email me 9 delicious recipes.  My husband loves roast, so I picked her "Lynn's Rockin' Roast" to prepare first.  All of Lynn's delectable recipes are posted under the "Share Your Recipes" tab. 

Lynn said, she always uses Cherry Coke when she makes this recipe, so that is what I did.  Not only was this roast super easy to prepare, but the Cherry Coke added an interesting twist.  It was a huge hit at my house!  The cola made the roast so tender you could cut it with a fork and the onion gravy was a savory delight.

Lynn, my husband Stan says, "Your roast really is rockin'!"  And he wants to know what can you do with a chicken?

Recipe: Pepper Steak Roast

Pepper Steak Roast

2 1/2 to 3 pounds chuck roast, cut into chunks, browned

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes

In slow cooker, place roast chunks.  Place peppers over roast.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Pour stewed tomatoes over top.  Cover. Cook on low 9 to 12 hours.  Makes 6 servings.

My husband Stan loves this recipe!  He likes to have it served over rice.  The beef is so tender you can cut it with your fork.  The stewed tomatoes and sweet bell peppers, create a broth full of so much flavor, that you almost want to pour it in a glass and drink it.

This recipe takes just a few minutes to prepare in the morning.  I slice the peppers the night before and place them in a plastic bag.  All I have to do in the morning, is brown the meat then layer the ingredients in the slow cooker.  When I get home, I am met with the aroma of a delicious home cooked meal.

 Recipe can be found on page 162 in,
