Pot Roast was a Success!

Surprisingly, it turned out pretty well. It needs a little more flavor, so I'll just preface this with "...and add the seasonings that you like in your pot roast" but it was a great recipe and the meat literally fell apart, which was perfect.

Ingredients:
4 pounds chuck roast
salt and pepper to taste
1 packet dry onion soup mix
1 cup water
3 carrots, chopped
1 onion, chopped
3 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 can beef broth
1 can diced tomatoes
2 tsp bay leaves

Directions:
1. Take the chuck roast and season with salt and pepper to taste. Brown on all sides in a large skillet over high heat.
2. Place in the slow cooker and add the soup mix, water, carrots, onion, potatoes, beef broth, tomatoes and celery.
3. Cover and cook on low setting for 6-8 hours.

Most delicious stir fry ever.

6 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp rice wine
3 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp corn starch
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tbsp minced ginger root
2 tbsp minced garlic
1 lb beef round steak, cut into thin strips
8 oz fresh snow peas
1 yellow or red bell pepper
instant white rice

1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice wine, brown sugar and cornstarch. Set aside.

2. Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium high heat. Stir-fry ginger and garlic for 30 seconds. Add the steak and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until evenly browned. Add the snow peas and stir-fry for an additional 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce mixture, bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Lower heat and simmer until the sauce is thick and smooth. Serve immediately.

Most. Delicious. Meal. Ever.

Seriously. 203 calories a serving, and I probably had two servings. Super delicious and totally awesome. Healthy and amazing. And only took like 15 minutes.
