Today I am battling allergies. I just got home from vacationing in Florida, and on the flight home I developed allergies from the altitude change. It happens to me every time I travel. So when I got home I thought I would make a comforting meal for the family to help with allergies and jet-lag. In my up coming posts I will talk about our trip to Orlando, but for right now here is some good old family comfort food.
This meal could not be easier, and it is one of those meals where you just dump and go! On a busy day, when you just do not have time to plan out your meal, but you still want it to look and taste like you put so much planning and thought into it. This is a no-brainer! and the hubs will love it! It is such a comfort food, and absolutely delicious!
And it can very very cost efficient especially when Chuck Roast is on sale! If you keep a box of the soup mix, and cans of condensed cream of mushroom soup in your pantry, than you will always have something to throw in your Crock Pot. And later, when you start to smell what is cooking in there, you will not regret this decision!
And I have found that even without adding liquid to this Slow Cooker Pot Roast it will still make a delicious gravy!
