Beef Pot Roast with Gravy w/ Roasted Carrots and Red Potatoes

Dinner Tonight: Beef Pot Roast with Gravy w/ Roasted Carrots and Red Potatoes





Went out to grab the Morning Papers and it is COLD out there this morning. It's 20 degrees with a
wind chill in the teens, COLD! Partly sunny and 37 degrees but the wind chill kept it at below

freezing most of the day. So for Breakfast I prepared one of my favorites, Hash Browns and Ham topped with an Egg and Cheese. I prepared some Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns, topped them with some cooked diced Ham, 1 Egg Sunnyside Up, and Sargento Reduced Fat Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese. I also had a cup of my Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Did a load of laundry and cleaned the house today. Then watched some Football for the rest of the afternoon. For Dinner tonight a Beef Pot Roast with Gravy w/ Roasted Carrots and Red Potatoes.



While at Costco the other day I came across a Morton's of Omaha Beef Pot Roast with Gravy. It sounded and look delicious so I bought a container of it. It's precooked so all you have to do is heat it up. There's 2 ways you can prepare it, by the microwave or by boiling the bag in water. I went with the microwave preparation. To prepare it; Remove the outer sleeve and the tray seal. Leave the reheat bag with the Beef Pot Roast in the tray. Cut 4 small holes in the top of the reheat bag for ventilation. Place the tray with the reheat bag into the microwave. Microwave on high for 10 minutes. Cut end of bag with scissors and empty into tray for serving. Very easy to prepare.


For one side I roasted some Carrots. I bought a bag of Whole Carrots from Kroger. Washed the Carrots off and then sliced them up. I grabbed a medium sized sauce pan and filed it with water.

Heated it on high bringing it to a boil. Added the sliced Carrots and boiled until almost for tender. Drained the water and set the Carrots aside. For the Potatoes I used a bag of Petite Red Gourmet Potatoes. Gave them a quick wash with water and the cut them in half. Put them in a bowl and seasoned them with McCormick Grinders of Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley, Dried Parsley, and Extra Light Olive Oil. Mixed them in a bowl until seasoned. I had already preheated the oven on 425 degrees. I got a baking sheet and covered it with foil. Sprayed it with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray and added a 1/2 a tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil. I then added the sliced Carrots and Red Potatoes to the pan. Seasoned them with Dried Rosemary and Dried Thyme then mixed them together in the pan. Put the pan in the oven and baked until fork tender.

With everything done I grabbed a large serving bowl and added the Carrots and Red Potatoes. Then I topped them with Beef Pot Roast. I saved the gravy that was with the Roast in another bowl and added that to top the Roast with when serving.This is the 1st time I tried the Morton's of Omaha Beef Pot Roast with Gravy and it was delicious! The Beef was tender and flavorful and the Gravy was seasoned just right! The Carrots and Potatoes were perfect with the Beef Roast. Fantastic Meal! For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop - Pop Corn and a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.
