Stove Top Pot Roast

Hello again, people!

As a lot of you know, I like cooking. I love to find recipes and use them as my template!
I rarely ever follow a recipe exactly as it’s written.
So, the other day I made a stove-top pot-roast! I used a mixture of Ree Drummond/Pioneer Woman and Chungah Rhee/Damn Delicious. They’re literally 2 of my favorite cooks. So, if we are being 100% honest, almost everything I cook is inspired by their recipes!
Anyway...I started by slicing the onions and the potatoes in half and chopping the carrots and celery into edible chunks. Threw a little olive oil into my pot and heated that up...then I seared my onions (flat side down). Once they were nice and browned, I removed them onto a plate and threw my carrots into the pan for a few minutes. Once those were seared a little, I placed them onto the onion plate.
Now, you’re ready to sear that roast!! Add a tad more olive oil to the pot and then throw that bad boy in there. You’re going to want to try and move it around...don’t. Let it sit still for a couple minutes and then flip it and do the same to the other side. If it’s a big roast, do this to all 4 sides. I had a small roast, so I only had 2 large sides. Moving on...once it’s nice and seared add your broth and wine. I did 1 cup of red wine and a whole carton of beef stock. I then dumped my carrots, onions, and celery into the pot and all of my seasonings. I forgot to mention above that I chopped up like 3-4 cloves of fresh garlic after I cut all my veggies. Throw that in there. I chose not to use a sprig of fresh thyme only because my thyme plant is still pretty small, so I used my organic dried thyme. I also added 2 bay leaves and of course salt & pepper. Gave it all a big ole stir and put a lid on it.
I let it come to a rolling boil and then I put a lid on it and turned it to lo/simmer. Let that cook for at least 4 hours. I believe we ate at the 5.5 hour mark or so.
I took a picture before I stirred it all up, but then I went on about my business and forgot to take a plated picture. Whooops!! Ah well.
Enjoy - if you click on their names, it’ll take you to their recipes. Tweak to your liking! 🤗

Ps - I realized after the fact that the Pioneer Woman recipe is actually from the Baked in the South page...but it’s basically the same.

Instant Pot Chili!!

I was supposed to post this last night, but we all know how plans tend to work out when you have a newborn.  🤷🏻‍♀️ So, this instant pot chili is one of our favs! We discovered this recipe over 2 years ago when we started living in the camper! And we continue to make it! So easy and so good!! What you need: •1 lb ground beef (85/15 or 90/10) •1 large onion chopped •3 cloves of garlic finely chopped •1/4 cup chili powder •1 tablespoon cumin •1 tablespoon oregano •1 1/2 cups water •1 - 28oz can crushed tomatoes •4 cans mixed beans (we get the tri-blend beans - black, kidney, pinto) drained & rinsed! **optional: shredded cheese & corn chips What to do:  Turn your Instant Pot onto sauté mode. Put a little vegetable oil into your pot (I only use olive oil, so that’s fine, too). Add your onions and garlic and cook for a few minutes, until translucent. Once they’re nice and soft, add all of your seasonings and mix it all up. While that’s al...

Life Update

Life update, y’all. It’s been a WHILE since I’ve posted! Since the last post (since been deleted) I’ve not only QUIT my SeneGence side business...I’ve also birthed another human!! And purchased a few more animals. And bought quite a bit more makeup haha. Photo posted is of our newest edition: Charlotte Blake! Grayson is becoming such a good, new big brother!! It’s been a MAJOR change in his life, so we’ve had to do A LOT of adjusting. Continue to pray for us on that! We’ve been doing well, though! And I’m excited to start blogging again!

Thankful Thursday!!

Happy Thursday! We call Thursday, Thankful Thursday around here. And today I’m thankful for life. I’m thankful for my side biz... SeneGence . I’m thankful for a healthy child. I’m thankful that we have a roof over our head. I’m NOT thankful for bills...and I’m NOT thankful for money being tied up in limbo causing all of our bills to be late! That....my friends.....is STRESSFUL! But all of that aside, I’m SO happy to be able to share life with y’all. So, since it’s Thankful Thursday and I mentioned being thankful for my SeneGence business....let’s talk about it!! I LOVE every single one of our products (that I’ve tried) and not because I sell them. The reason I became a distributor is because I fell in love with LipSense and just wanted to share it with everyone around me. And I have consistently posted about it on Facebook and Instagram. And I’ve had a couple people bite and make purchases from me...no surprise they love it and have since purchased from me again. Howe...
