Beef Roast (Slow Cooker)
I never grew up watching American Football. In fact I didn't see my first football game until I went to university. My fiance on the other hand grew up in a Patriot home. So Sunday in our house is Football Day, which means he wants meat for supper. If you're like me you want to have some time to relax on Sunday before heading back to work. The amazing and sometimes understated Slow Cooker comes in handy on Sundays. One of my favourite dishes to cook in our Slow Cooker is Beef Roast. It's a great Football Sunday meal and allows me the opportunity to prepare a big meal and still have time for a nap.
From my kitchen to yours:
