Happy Mother’s Day weekend! I hope that your weekend is full of love and pampering! Chances are, mine won’t be, long story but Mother’s Day is usually a downer around here. In case your life is like mine I thought I’d share and some very easy recipes and remind you of some fun things you can do for yourself this weekend.
Easy Recipe Root Beer Roast
In case you have to cook on Mother’s Day, you can at least keep it simple with this recipe.
- 3-4 lb rump roast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 can root beer
- Mix the salt, pepper and garlic together.
- Rub the spice mixture over the roast.
- Place the roast in the crockpot.
- Pour the root beer over the roast.
- Put the lid on the crockpot and cook on low 8-10 hours.
- Enjoy!
I told you that was easy!
I’ve already told you about Mom’s Night Out, the movie but I want to encourage you again to go see it this weekend. Call your mom, your sister, your best friend, or even take your hubby. You will laugh and maybe even cry and it will be a cathartic time of release and entertainment.
If all else fails this weekend whip up some Salted Caramel Pretzel Bark and hide in the bedroom with a good book or soak in the tub and hang this free printable Me Time sign on the door.
I truly do hope you enjoy your weekend and that your children and spouse celebrate you for who you are and all you are!
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 just ask that you not copy and share the entire recipe with photos. Please use the sharing buttons below and share the link to this post. Thanks!
I have never heard of making Root Beer roast. Does the roast take on the root beer flavor? If it doesn’t, it would be something worth trying. I always get rave reviews from my roast, but it’s very simple and nothing more than simple ingredients in a slower cooker.
I got to see Mom’s Night Out last night, and I am going to be posting my review of it soon! I have no idea what my Mother’s Day is going to look like. Of course, I’ve been spoiled a lot lately so it’s probably going to be another day. Hopefully, I’ll get to work though all day long. 🙂
