Introduction

Two easy meals. This recipe makes a delicious and easy low-carb roast beef with lots of liquid. We have it for dinner one night, and I use the leftovers for a great stew base with added frozen or canned vegetables for another meal. (I usually freeze it and use it later.) Two easy meals.
