"This is my own recipe. We love our roast in a tomato base. My family likes to serve the gravy over rice. Sometimes I leave out the potatoes or carrots—it all depends on what I have on hand."

Another Fantastic crock pot meal. What my family of five enjoyed about this recipe was the Rotel tomatoes. It made a nice addition to the traditional pot roast. I think next time, I will add two cans of the Rotel tomatoes. The leftovers were just as good. A true keeper. Served it with a side salad and the meal was complete.
