Italian-style Pot Roast

2 lbs sirloin roast
1 28 oz can diced tomatoes
2 stalks celery diced
1 large onion diced
1 green pepper sliced
3 cloves garlic, diced fine
1 jalapeno pepper
1 TB olive oil

Add onions, peppers, celery and garlic to olive oil and saute unti soft, add to small roasting pan that can be tightly covered. Add the diced tomatoes to the veg and season with salt and pepper. Brown the meat in the remaining olive oil on all sides . Add the meat, spooning some of the mix over the meat. Place in a 200 degree oven for 3 1/2 - 4 hours.

*Note this can be done in the slow cooker, but I find it always comes out better in the oven.

Number of Servings: 6
