Crock-Pot-Roast

This Crock-Pot-Roast recipe is one I found in a fundraiser cookbook that my aunt from Alabama bought me (thanks again Aunt Dee! :). This is my family's go-to meal when I don't want to cook or when nothing else sounds good.

Ingredients:
1 beef roast (we usually use a bottom round that's about 4 to 5 pounds)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can golden mushroom soup
1 can french onion soup (not the dry pack)

Directions:
Place meat in crockpot
Cover with all three soups
Cook on high 7 to 8 hours



Is that all you ask? It sure is! Simple, quick, easy, and so yummy!

However, I will warn you, when it first goes in it doesn't smell that great. But trust me, as it cooks your mouth will start to water. We usually serve this with Pillsbury biscuits and a vegetable side.

Enjoy! :)
