Rosemary Pot Roast {Slow Cooker}
Nothing says “comfort” to me more in the winter months than a slow cooker creating tantalizing fragrances as it warms up a pot roast for dinner. Not that you can call 50 degrees in January in Ohio Winter. Not that I am complaining. In fact, I would be incredibly thrilled if it weren’t for my sinuses being so stubborn about not liking this weather. I digress.
Rosemary Pot Roast . . .the night I made this dish I stuck bread to baking in the bread machine and when my husband came home he practically salivated upon entering the house. And it was as pleasing to the taste buds as it was to the olfactory senses. And considering it took me all of 10 minutes to prepare and set in the slow cooker, I would have to say that it was a huge success.

Is there something you can substitute for the condensed cream of mushroom soup? We are not fans!
If you don’t want to use the canned variety there is a link to a post on making your own. Other than that I might suggest sour cream?
