I'm reposting this here.  It was attached to another thread in chit chat and thought it would be easier to find here.


Mexican pot Roast
3 pounds lean roast
1/2 onion, chopped
1 cup salsa with no sugar added
1 can black beans


Cook on high 4 hours or low 8 hours.  Shred the meat with fork and stir all together.

I made this for dinner tonight! YUM! I used a bit more salsa (I *love* salsa on just about everything). I also added some spices to make a taco seasoning flavor. I had kidney beans on hand (although black beans would have been yummy here) so I used those. Did it in the crock then made a gravy out of the sauce (with a teeny bit of oat flour). I sliced the roast instead of shredding it because I can't find whole wheat tortillas at my grocery store. Then I made brown rice and served the sauce over the rice and beef. OMG! It was good. We ate a lot of rice and beans before (at least once a week) and it's nice to know I have a good alternative.

ANyway, this was yummy. Thanks. I really didnt think I'd be able to eat pot roast w/o brown gravy and mashed potatoes!
