Ridiculously Easy Roast

This recipe is one that we make quite often. It is a very easy Sunday night dinner. We make it probably once every month or two. Serve it alongside mashed potatoes.

Crockpot Roast

1 3lb. pot roast
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can french onion soup
salt
pepper
garlic powder
1 pkg. onion soup mix
1 32 oz. box beef broth
1 bag microwaveable carrots

Season both sides of the roast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Combine both soups in the crockpot. Whisk together. Turn the crockpot on low. Pour beef broth into the soup mixture, combining well. Stir in onion soup mixture. Place roast and carrots into the liquid. Cook for 7-8 hours. The meat will fall apart when you are ready to take it out of the crockpot. If you wish to make gravy from the liquid, make a paste to stir into the broth. Mix 4 Tbsp. cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water together until smooth. Once you remove the roast, stir the cornstarch and water mixture into the broth. Stir well and allow to thicken. Place roast back into the gravy.`
