Hopefully today will be the last cold day and spring will finally arrive keeping my fingers crossed on that :)  I have another crock pot recipe it starts cooking the night before and you finish it the next day it comes from www.twomaidsamilking.blogspot.com .  This was the perfect meal for a cold rainy day.

                                                   Leah's Beef and Noodles


1 beef roast
1 beer - can or bottle
1 pkg. dry onion soup mix
3 cloves garlic
1 can mushroom soup
10 c. water
1 pound homemade (store-brought) noodles

Place roast in crock pot.  Pour beer, onion soup, and garlic over the top.  Cook on low overnight.  In the morning break meat apart.  Add mushroom soup and 6 c. of water.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  Cook on low all day.  One hour before you eat, add noodles as well as more water up to 4 c. depending on how moist you like it.
Serve over mashed potatoes.

My note:  I basically did as it said I got to use my onion soup mix that I had put together the night before :)  And I only used about 8 c. of water adding some when I did the noodles.  My roast was about a 3 pound chuck roast.  Oh, and I added some sliced mushrooms.

This was a great meal I served it over mashed potatoes just like it said to do with a side of peas and homemade rolls.  It smells so good while the roast is cooking.  I put it on right before I went to bed.  I have to say the onion soup mix gives it a nice beefy flavor glad I put the mix together.  This is a keeper.  Enjoy!!!!
