Crockpot - Grass Fed Beef Roast, Potatoes and Mushrooms

Hi Everyone!

I hope you all are enjoying your Summer!  We are staying busy and need fast, healthy dinners.  

Yesterday we had one of those very busy days.  I decided to put a Roast in the crockpot for dinner, Yes Red Meat but Grass Fed Beef with lots of health benefits!  (I've listed the benefits and an article at the end of this blog.)  Anyway, we LOVED it; I hope you give it a try on one of your busy Summer days.

1 Grass Fed Beef Roast (2 pounds)
2 cups Organic Low Sodium Beef Broth
1 cup of Water
3 Cloves of Garlic minced
2 T. Coconut Liquid Aminos
Sprinkle of Old Bay Seasoning - gives it a little kick!
2 t. salt
Lots of fresh ground pepper
2 t. garlic powder
Cook in a large crockpot on HIGH for 4 hours

After the roast has cooked for 4 hours, add several peeled potatoes cut into big chunks.  I sprinkled these with Salt and pepper and made sure they were down in the juice. Leave crockpot on HIGH

After the potatoes had cooked for an hour, I added a full bag of organic pre-cleaned mushrooms I purchased at Spouts.  I left the crockpot on HIGH and let everything cook for another 1 1/2 hours.  The mushrooms seemed to disappear into the juice, YUM!

We usually have leftovers but not this time, every bit of the roast, potatoes and mushrooms were gone!

I served fresh fruit along side the yummy dish. ENJOY!!

Grass Fed Beef Benefits:

1. Because grassfed meat is so lean, it is also lower in calories. 

2. A 6-ounce steak from a grass-finished steer has almost 100 fewer calories than a 6-ounce steak from a grainfed steer.

3. Extra Omega-3s

The CLA Bonus:   The meat and milk from grassfed ruminants are the richest known source of another type of good fat called "conjugated linoleic acid" or CLA.  When ruminants are raised on fresh pasture alone, their milk and meat contain as much as five times more CLA than products from animals fed conventional diets. 

CLA may be one of our most potent defenses against cancer.
