BONNIE'S SUNDAY DINNER POT ROAST- HER WAY
I just threw this recipe together for tonight's dinner after Church. It cooked all day in the slow cooker, and it came out just perfect. It is so tender, and the gravy is just yummy. This is one of those food experiments that works on the first try. I won't change a thing, and I will serve it to the kids the next time they...

Steps:
- 1. Trim the fat from the chuck roast, and pat it dry. Add salt and pepper to your taste. Heat the oil in a dutch oven over medium high heat and add the roast. (I use cast iron) Get a good sear on both sides of the meat.
- 2. While the meat is searing, combine the following ingredients in a medium size mixing bowl: 2 cans cream of chicken soup, 2 cans of sliced and drained mushrooms. 1 mushroom can of Marsala wine, 1 heaping teaspoon chopped garlic and black cracked pepper. Mix well. Set aside.
- 3. Cooks Tip: I used a liner for easy clean up. It is great for storing the leftovers. You just lift it out and place it in a container. Refrigerate. The next day, you put it back in the slow cooker to reheat it.
- 4. Place the seared meat in the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the potatoes. Pour the bowl mixture over the top of the roast. Put on the lid and don't look at it again until dinner time. Cook 2 hours on high, and then 4 to 6 hours on low until it is as tender as you like it. The gravy will turn a lovely golden brown, and there is no need to thicken it.
- 5. Here is a couple of shots of how it looks! Enjoy!
- 6. Leftovers are great the next day!

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help them absorb the dressing better and make the slaw more flavorful.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with the shredding blade. Just be careful not to over-process the vegetables, or they will become too mushy.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your slaw. In addition to cabbage and carrots, you can also add broccoli, cauliflower, bell peppers, or snap peas.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings. A simple vinaigrette is always a good choice, but you can also try a creamy dressing made with mayonnaise or yogurt, or a tangy dressing made with vinegar and mustard.
- Let the slaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the vegetables to soften slightly.
Conclusion:
Bonnie's Easter Slaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any spring or summer gathering. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a light and flavorful side dish, give this recipe a try.
