We are meat eaters, I have tried to institute one meatless meal a week and that concept was met with across the board disapproval. In our house if there isn’t meat, it isn’t a meal. Beef is my favorite kind of meat. The problem is other than ground beef dishes and steaks, I never know what to do with other cuts of beef. Like a basic roast. I know my mom and mother-in-law cook these on a regular basis, but historically they aren’t my favorite. I don’t like your basic post roast with all the veggies and stuff invading my meat. I eat it when it is served to me but it is never my first choice.

Recently I found a crockpot roast recipe that resonated with me. It is a 3 Envelope Crockpot Roast which sounded easy enough, so I added it to our meal plan. On his next shopping trip I sent hubby out to find a 3-4 pound roast and the 3 needed envelopes. I made this recipe along with some veggie and my Cheesy Potato Chips. Anyone can make this recipe, it is so easy…and delicious!

How easy is that? If it seems a bit salty, use the low sodium brown gravy packet. This 3 Envelope crockpot Roast is the easiest thing I have ever cooked! It is also the tastiest roast I have ever eaten. We all agreed that this will go into our regular meal plan rotation. Ron now knows to keep his eye out for roasts when they are on sale so that we have one on hand whenever we want a delicious roast for dinner. I hope you enjoy this recipe and all of the easy recipes I share here on The Mom Maven. I hope you share them on your social networks.

    I was just comparing 2 recipes also – identical except the other recipe said 1 tsp red paper flakes and this recipe says 1/4 tsp. Thanks for confirming – I\’ll be using only 1/4 tsp!
