delicious, WW friendly and fabulous for the entire family comfort food at its max this recipe is no different it is so delicious so filling so satisfying and so comforting so if you want to see what recipe I have in store for you just stay tuned for tonight's comfort food dinner slow cooker style we are going to be making a pot roast what is better on a cool day than a pot roast it's comforting it's delicious it's point friendly for red meat and you get your veggies your starch everything all in one meal this is a very simple recipe so let me show you what is in tonight's pot roast dinner first you're going to need a roast I just have a chuck roast here it's a total of almost three pounds 2.88 I like to buy the boneless chuck roast only because it's a little easier to remove the fat once the meat is cooked and you don't have to pay for the bone as part of the roast so I picked up a boneless chuck roast I always use baby cut and peeled carrots it's easier than peeling and dicing up carrots so baby carrots and again potatoes a quick saver is by the little tiny potatoes so you don't have to cut them up makes it really easy these two things are a big saver on a pot roast in the crock pot recipe you'll also need two cups of water that is going to help make brown gravy so two packages of brown gravy and I have a quite a large onion the recipe calls for two onions but I'm just going to slice up this large onion so let me get my onion sliced up and let's get this crock pot dinner put together so let's get going on this crock pot dinner now if you're not using a crock pot liner you will want to spray your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray so everything just doesn't stick to the bottom of your crock pot first thing we're going to do is go ahead and grab out your roast you're just going to place that in the bottom of your crock pot mine's big so it pretty much takes up the whole bottom of my crock pot another reason why you want to make sure that you're spraying it so it doesn't stick to that I went ahead and just kind of chopped up my onion here I'm just going to go ahead and just add my onion you kind of want to surround your roast with all of the potatoes onions carrots that type of thing that way it really adds to the flavor I'm even going to tuck a few here under my roast and once we get the onions in we're going to go ahead and add in the potatoes next up are our potatoes so I have my whole bag I'm actually going to use all of these petite white potatoes in my roast here and again I am going to tuck a few kind of in and under the roast that way it just kind of adds to the flavor makes it really yummy so again you guys these are the perfect size for this they're already the greatest size that you don't have to cut them and add an extra step so potatoes are in next are our carrot so I'm going to go ahead and add this entire bag of baby carrots only because we like lots of carrots with our roast we want to get in a good dose of veggies in our recipe so again tuck them in surround that roast with all of that goodness and then we're going to make up our gravy so in my bowl here I added one cup of the two cups of water I do have the other cup right here to my bowl I'm going to go ahead and add one packet of my brown gravy and I'm just going to add that in and we're going to stir it together so just one cup of water in one packet of your brown gravy and we just want to stir it until it's fully combined alright we're ready to add this water and gravy mixture here into our roast now the other packet of gravy and the other cup of water we're not going to add until one hour before our roast is done so now we're ready to go ahead and put on the lid and I'm going to go ahead and turn mine on to high for the first couple of hours because it is already about 11 in the morning I went to Jazzercise and came home and got this started so I'm going to turn mine to high for a couple hours and then I'll put it on the low ideally you would want to cook this on low for 8 to 10 hours so an hour before this is done I'll be back and we'll add in that second cup of gravy so it's about an hour before dinner so I just mixed up that second packet of gravy and look how good this looks you guys so we're going to go ahead and pour that in I just mixed it with one cup of water just like we did with the first packet of gravy and we're going to let this continue cooking for about the next hour and it should be good to go it smells delicious so I just pulled the lid off of the pot roast I'm going to go ahead and plate it up it smells really good it's nice and thick from that gravy mix so you can add a little bit of gravy to your potatoes so I'll get this plated up and I'll be back to show you my dinner and give you
