Ranch/Italian Pot Roast

Another "recipe" to be chalked up as a keeper, and it is the MOST simple and amazing recipe ever! I have no idea how come I have never thought of cooking a roast with this seasoning combination before.  So simple, so delicious, and it's in the crock pot!!!!!

It is very basic.

1-roast (I am not sure on poundage.  I just unwrapped a roast and put it in)
1 packet dry Ranch dressing mix
1 packet dry Italian dressing mix
1 packet dry Brown gravy mix
1/2 Cup water (I used 1 cup...1/2 just didn't seem enough)

1) Place roast in the crock pot.  Combine the 3 mixes with the water.  Pour over the roast.
2) Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours.

I served ours with mashed potatoes, but I think it would be delicious with noodles or rice too.

Sorry, no pics again.  When something is delicious, it disappears before I have a chance to take pictures.

A.k.a. Shredded beef tacos

These are super yummy and super easy to make since it is a crockpot meal.

Here is what you need:

3 or 4 pound roast

1 package taco seasoning

1 small can diced green chilis

2 Cups water

1) Place all ingredients in a lightly greased or lined crockpot. Cook on low 9 hours.

2) Shred beef roast with forks and mix back in the crockpot to season it.

3) Serve on tortillas with cheese and other favorite taco toppings (lettuce, tomato, sour cream, etc). Can also serve with rice.

Super delicious and oh so EASY!
