Crockpot Beef Roast

This is the way my Grandma has cooked her roast for years, except that she does hers in the oven.  I love the crockpot for roasts because they are always so tender and juicy.  We never really even need a knife to cut it with.  Anyway, it's super good, easy, and cheap! 

What You Will Need:

Beef Roast

1/2 cup water

1 pkg of Lipton Onion Soup mix

1 bay leaf

1.  Put your water in the bottom of you crockpot.  Add your roast, and sprinkle the soup mix on top.  Set your bay leaf on top as well. 

2.  Cook on low 8 hours, and then enjoy!

Cheese Ball

This is a cheese ball recipe that has been around in my family for awhile.  It's simple and delicious!

What you will need:

8 oz cream cheese

1 bottle of Kraft cheese

1 tbsp. minced onion

1/4 tsp garlic salt

crushed nuts (whatever you prefer)

Mix everything together and let sit overnight.  Form into a ball and roll in crushed nuts of your choice.

Stuffed French Toast

I got this one off of a ward Relief Society newsletter. I'm not for sure who's recipe it was, but whoever it was, thanks for sharing!  It's really yummy!

Stuffed French Toast

8 oz cream cheese

3 Tblsp strawberry jam

1/2 nutmeg

1 tsp vanilla

eggs milk

bananas

fresh strawberries

Mix the cream cheese and strawberry jam together for the filling.  Prepare/mix the eggs, milk, nutmeg, and vanilla together to dip the bread in.  Spread a generous amount of cream cheese mixture between 2 pieces of bread and then dip into milk/egg mixture.  Cook stuffed french toast as you normally would, making sure to turn over on both sides.

Butter Syrup

Melt 1 cube of butter in pan.  Slowly add 1 cup sugar and dissolve on medium heat. When dissolved thoroughly, it should appear whitish yellow in color and be nice and creamy.  Then add 3/4 of a 12 oz can of evaporated milk and 1 tsp. vanilla, stir together until it gets thicker (this may take 5-10 minutes of stirring constantly).  Then serve over the stuffed french toast and sliced fruit.
