Sunday Dinner!?!

Growing up in a nice religious home meant going to Church

just about every Sunday!?!

(Knight Family - Fall 90)

And, after my Dad became a minister
-&-
started a church of his own...we spent even more time there on Sunday!?!
Making sure things were all in order!?!
So, to make things easier when we got home my Mom would prepare Sunday dinner ahead of time...throw it in the oven !?!
That way there would be just a few things left to finish up when we got home!?!
And, one of her most popular Sunday dinners was a Beef Roast of some kind
-&-
all the accompanying vegetables!?!
She'd serve that with some hot rolls -&- a tossed salad -&- we were goooood to go!?!

And, along with sharing this memory I thought I'd also share a recipe similar to what she'd do...


Ingredients

* 4 pounds chuck roast
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1 packet dry onion soup mix
* 1 cup water
* 3 carrots, chopped
* 1 onion, chopped

2. Place in the roasting pan -&- add the soup mix, water, carrots, onion, potatoes -&- celery!?!
