Ever since we moved up here, I have been trying to get in the habit of doing a crock pot meal every Sunday. Honestly, the idea of making a delicious Sunday dinner for just two of us can be a little daunting and I don't want to spend the entirety of my Sunday cooking. Shortly after we moved up here, Sterling bought me a little crock pot from Target for $20.
Best $20 we ever spent.
One of our favorite recipes that we tried with the crock pot was a Cola Roast. My good friend Trista lent me her cookbook 101 Things to Do With a Crock Pot, and that's where I found this recipe. In good time too, because Sterling was craving a good Roast! This was so easy, anyone can do it. Put it in the crock in the morning and by six o'clock your mouth will be watering!
Here's what you'll need:
3 pound Beef Roast
1 packet Dry Onion Soup Mix
2 cans (12 ounces each) of Cocoa Cola (diet cola will NOT work! Use regular!)
Put your roast into a greased Crock Pot, then sprinkle it with the onion soup mix. Next, pour the cola all over the roast. Cover it and cook on low heat for 7-8 hours.
Sterling likes his roast with mashed potatoes and carrots. We added the carrots into the crock about 2 hours before it was done.
I hope you enjoy this meal as much as we did!
