    I love my crock-pot when I’m having a busy week.  It’s so nice to prepare a meal before work and have it ready to eat when I walk in the door.  This roast beef with onion gravy was one of the easiest recipes I’ve ever made in the crock-pot and only has a few simple ingredients.

    The sauce thickens up in the pot and makes a nice dark brown gravy.  It’s perfect for a hearty winter meal.  I served it up with mashed potatoes and used the gravy on them as well.  The beef was super tender and there was enough left over the next day to make roast beef sandwiches with gravy.
