Slow Cooker Beef and Gravy

Tuesday, March 26, 2024
Slow Cooker Beef with Gravy is the start of a variety of wonderful meals with just one recipe.

The flavors in this gravy and the tenderness of the meat are perfect for filling tacos, over pasta noodles and so much more.

I have used chuck, roast, and London broil, these are both great cuts to use in this recipe.

The sauce is so flavorful with ingredients that tenderize any meat when cooking slowly.

Leftovers are perfect for making additional meals like pot pie or enjoying this poured over your favorite bread as a covered sandwich.

Our family loves the roast with garlic mashed potatoes and corn on the cob, those are their favorite sides so I tend to make those more often to keep them happy.

The gravy it makes is perfect for topping any cooked style of potatoes and our very favorite is topping (as shown below)Steakhouse Baked Potatoes.

Roasted Golden Beets

Saturday, March 23, 2024
Roasted Golden Beets are my favorite next to the Ruby red styles, because of their earthier flavors and the there isn't any red dye to worry about staining.

During the Spring, is when I find them easily in most produce sections of the supermarket.

I always opt for the small bunches of beets as they tend to be much sweeter in flavor.
