Ingredients
8 oz. beef chuck roast3 small or medium red potatoes, cubed15 baby carrots, sliced1/2 medium onion, sliced into rings1/2 packet Lipton Recipe Secrets onion soup mix
Directions
Place cut potatoes & carrots in the bottom of a 1 1/2 or 2-quart Crock Pot. Place roast on top of veggies. Separate onion into rings and lay rings on top of roast, trying to cover as much surface area as possible.

Empty half of the contents of an envelope of Lipton onion soup (or equivalent) into a bowl, then add water slowly and stir until you have created a paste, about the consistency of a cream soup. Spread the paste over the roast and onions.

Cover and cook on low for about 8 hours.

    I made this last night....I have tried lots of different ways, but this was by far the best flavor and most tender. I added 2 beef bouillon cubes and about a half of cup of water and poured over veggies before placing beef on top. Also chopped up some fresh garlic and laid it on top w/ onions. YUM - 5/14/09

    I love it. I have a small slow cooker and finding recipes that work for the small ones. It was wonderful! - 2/24/08

    I made this the other night and it turned out GREAT! I added celery, 2 beef bouillon cubes and some hot water to the veggies. I added fresh garlic on top of the roast and inside the roast. The chuck roast was a bit greasy so I would reccommend, next time, using a round roast. - 1/28/11

    My husband loved it! 8 hours was just perfect, and I used a pot roast instead of chuck, because I could buy a small enough portion. - 6/29/08

    I didn't have the onion soup exactly -- used Leek Soup mix instead-- close enough. Very good! - 2/20/10
