This is easy and then dinner is ready.

I totally forgot about this blog until Randi emailed me today and asked about one of the recipes. It got me in the mood to share recipes and keep a record for myself, so here we go again.

This recipe comes from Andrea Peroitti who's name I can never remember how to spell. We were roommates at BYU. The four of us (plus Micah who I was dating at the time) took turns cooking dinner for each other once a week. I liked that plan and always liked what Andrea would serve us because it was never something I had grown up eating once a week. Even since then I've gotten really great recipes from her that I just wouldn't have thought of making on my own.

This one is pretty basic, but you'll love yourself for having the ingredients on hand when your dinner makes itself.

Easy Beefy Sandwiches

2-4 lb rump roast

1 envelope Italian dressing

1 envelope dried onion soup mix

2 beef bullion cubes

2 TBLS yellow mustard

Garlic powder

Onion powder

Salt and pepper

1 ½ cups water

Combine all ingredients in crock pot on low for 8-10 hours. Shred meat and serve on your favorite bread.

(I always season and brown the meat on all sides on the stove top just before putting it in the crock pot.)
