I made this once and it was very tasty; different for a pot roast.  We're having it again tonight.


Rio Grande Pot Roast


1½ cups thick-and-chunky salsa


1 cup water


1 can (6 oz) NSA tomato paste (I left this out, as I didn't have a NSA verison on hand)


1 packet taco seasoning


1 3-lb boneless beef bottom round roast (or whichever lean cut you prefer)


½ tsp each salt and pepper


2 Tbsp natural peanut butter


1/3 cup chopped cilantro


Directions:


1.  Sear the roast in a pan.  Put the roast into a crock pot.


2.  Add the salsa, water, tomato paste and taco seasoning to the crock pot.


3.  Cover and cook on low 8 to 10 hours, until the beef is very tender.  Remove to a cutting board.  Stir peanut butter and cilantro into sauce.  Slice meat against the grain; serve with the sauce.
