  • Crockpot or optional, Pressure Cooker

Ingredients

  • 2 lb Beef Roast
  • Olive Oil, about 1-2 tablespoons for the meat and 1 for the veggies
  • 1 M-L Onion
  • 2 Ribs of Celery
  • 3 M Carrots
  • 2 T Minced Garlic
  • 6 oz Can Tomato Paste
  • 1 C Dry Red Wine
  • 28 oz Can Crushed Tomatoes
  • 2 t Salt
  • 1 t Pepper
  • 1-2 t Italian Seasoning
  • Red Pepper Flakes, optional
  • Desired Pasta or Pasta Alternative I used miracle noodles and my family had regular spaghetti
  • Cheese to top your dishes, I used parmesan

Instructions

  • Cut up your roast into chunks and brown in a skillet over medium heat. While browning sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper.
  • Brown on all sides. While the pieces of meat are browning, cut up your veggies.
  • Remove meat to crockpot. Add a little bit of oil to your skillet. Add your veggies. Cook for about 5 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste. Stir to combine.
  • Add the red wine or beef broth. Stir.
  • Add the tomatoes. Stir, Add seasonings.
  • Pour over beef chunks. I did add a few dry bay leaves (I have a giant bag I need to use up). Cook on low for 7-9 hours or high 4-5.
  • Remove beef chunks and let cool for a bit. Shred and place beef back into the crockpot. If desired you can thin it down a little bit.
  • Serve however desired. I used miracle noodles, zero calories, zero carbs.
