I am very traditional when it comes to a pot roast and Sunday dinner. I do it the same way that my Grandma Davis does, meat potatoes, carrots, dry onion soup, etc. Paul suggested trying a new recipe and I protested! So, he made dinner, which I will never turn down a meal that I did not have to make! It turned out VERY good! In fact I would definitely make it again!
The reason that we tried it is that we have a coupon for the Classico tomatoes right now and have picked up a few cans. You can find that coupon HERE under 77477.
