Spicy Italian Roast

My family all calls this recipe, Spaghetti Roast and this is, hands down, my hubby's favorite roast that I make.  Of course, I love any recipe that can be made in the crock-pot and is ready when you walk in the door.

There is nothing like walking in the house to the smell of THIS roast at the end of a long day!

 

3 - 4 pound boneless beef roast

1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt

1 ( 4 oz.) can sliced mushrooms, drained

1 onion, diced

1 pkg. spaghetti sauce mix

1 ( 8 oz.) tomato sauce

* Note from MiMi: My family are all big gravy eaters, so I double the amount of mushrooms, spaghetti sauce mix and tomato sauce.

Place roast in crock-pot and season with garlic salt.

Add drained mushrooms and diced onions.

Combine package of spaghetti sauce mix and tomato sauce and stir until well blended.  

Pour tomato sauce mixture over all.

Cover and cook on "Low" for 8 - 10 hours OR cook on "High" for 2 hours and then turn on "Low" for 4 more hours.

Serve thickened gravy over hot pasta or rice.
