Pot Roast (Crock pot)


Weekend is here!!
What is your plans for the weekend??
I am so excited for our weekend. 
Hopefully everything will go smoothly.

Anyways, Sunday's are usually my favorite days to make Crock pot meals. 
But, Fridays seems to be better to make Crock pot meals.
We love having good Friday night meals while watching our shows
and this meal is just so perfect especially with the weather now.
It has been so cold!

I mean who doesn't like a classic Pot Roast. 
This is perfect cooked in Crock pot.
Slow cooked, making the meat really soft and full of flavor.

Let me know what you guys think!




First, Pan-Sear the meat.
This is such a good step when cooking meat in a Crock pot
so don't skip it!


Then mixed the Veggies. 
Look at the colors! Yum, Yum.


I highly recommend this recipe guys.
Let me know what you think.
