Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pounds 1 pot roast
  • 2 pieces russet potatoes, chopped
  • 1 bag frozen seasoning blend (or just chopped onions)
  • 1 bag frozen peas
  • 1 bag frozen green beans
  • 1 bag frozen corn
  • 4 pieces large carrots, chopped
  • 32 oz beef broth (1 container)
  • 2 cans tomato soup (10.75 oz each)
  • 1 can filled with water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the roast: Start by generously seasoning the pot roast with salt and pepper. Place it in your slow cooker, adding half a can of beef broth. Cook on LOW for about 10 hours, then shred with two forks when tender.
  2. Prepare the veggies: In a very large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped carrots and frozen seasoning mix until tender—this usually takes about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Combine ingredients: Now, add the shredded beef, chopped potatoes, and the remaining frozen vegetables to the pot. Pour in the rest of the beef broth, the two cans of tomato soup, and the can filled with water. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Simmer: Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about an hour, stirring occasionally. Feel free to add more water as desired while it cooks to achieve your preferred consistency.

Notes

For best flavor, consider searing the pot roast in a skillet before placing it in the slow cooker for a caramelized richness. You can also customize the vegetables based on what's in season or what you have at home.
