WW Recipe of the Day: Easy Slow Cooker Pot Roast
Today I'm sharing a recipe for an Peasy Slow Cooker Pot Roast. I'm one of those people who rarely makes the same recipe twice. I'm always experimenting in the kitchen, trying out new recipes, even for things as basic as pot roast. This one is a winner with everyone who has tried it.
Weight Watchers Friendly Slow Cooker Pot Roast
I've made several different pot roasts here on Simple Nourished Living through the years, both in the slow cooker and the oven, and all of them have been well received in our meat-and-potatoes-loving family.
I really appreciated the ease of this easy slow cooker pot roast. By investing a few minutes in the morning, I came home at the end of a busy day to a delicious complete dinner ready and waiting. Talk about maximum reward for minimal effort!
Just stir together a can of cream of mushroom soup and package of dry onion soup mix to create a delicious savory gravy for your roast and vegetables to simmer away in.
Don't you love recipes like that? I sure do, especially on busy days.
Easy Peasy Slow Cooker Pot Roast Recipe Notes
This easy slow cooker pot roast is an oldie but goodie that I adapted from my old Betty Crockers Cookbook (1978) (affiliate link), where it appears as a recipe designed to be wrapped in foil and slowly cooked in a 300F degree oven.
I used a bottom round rump roast which was on sale at my local market this week and is a great choice for Weight Watchers because it's lower in fat than many other beef roasts.
To make your own dry onion soup mix, combine ¼ cup dehydrated onions, 2 tablespoons instant beef bouillon (low sodium) and ½ teaspoon onion powder. I also chose a lighter cream of mushroom soup with less fat and sodium.
