    Very good. I used a tbl spoon of Olive Oil in a skillet and browned the outside of the roast with parsley, garlic, & pepper before putting it in the crock pot. I added Potatoes, Onion, and carrots as well. Even better the second day when re-heated. - 10/23/08

    great, I took the meat and shredded it, put it on buns with a little gravy the first nightfor fantastic roast beef sandwiches , the second night I added veggies and made an awesome stew. - 2/21/09

    I put some peeled white potatoes on the bottom of the crockpot and mixed the soup mix with a bit of water to pour over everything, then spread the canned soup over the meat. Carrots would also be good in this dish. Delicious with a side of mixed veggies! - 1/17/08

    I made this 2 nights ago and it was awesome!!! It was the first time making pot roast and couldn't believe it was this easy. I also added chopped potatoes, carrots, and onions and cooked on low for like 9 hours.

    It was delicious served with rice! Thanks! - 1/8/10

    I absolutely loved this recipe! My whole family said it was the best pot roast that they had ever tasted. I didn't even brown the meat prior to cooking like I normally would have. Could not have been easier! - 8/24/11

    I used a 3lb bottom round roast, a can of 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup, a can of beef broth and a can of water. Didn't have onion soup mix so I used onion powder. Also added potatoes and carrots. EXCELLENT!! Will definitely make this again and again! - 3/30/10

    You could also use Golden mushroom soup in this recipe my family has done this for years. It is the easiest possible way to do a roast we LOVE it..... - 1/24/08

    Made this for dinner tonight, we really liked it but felt it was a bit salty probaby due to the onion soup mix. - 2/5/12

    Thank you for the recipe. It was very good. I browned the roasted. I boiled the cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, sliced carrots, and 2 cans of water. I lined the bottom of crockpot with a pound of red potatoes and added a sweet onion. Hubby requested gravy. - 5/5/18

    Very good. I brown the roast on all sides first. I then mix the soup and the onion mix together, thin with some water and then pour over the roast. Add potatoes, carrots and onions to the bottom and calorie count separate for those. Thanks! - 10/18/16
