Recipes

Today I am going through my cookbooks and writing down book, recipe, page number, category so that I can have all of my favorite recipes without having to search. But that is not all!

Flavorful Pot Roast, Corn, Potatoes!

There is a new site called  saymmm.com that was shared with me by OrgJunkie that will be an excellent resource to Menu Planning and Grocery Shopping. I can put in all of my favorite recipes and it will even generate a shopping list when I add them to my menu plan for the week. I am hoping to be able to have my very first Menu Plan for next week. I know that it will take a while to get everything into the digital site, but I can not wait to be able to quickly and easily find our favorite recipes and try some new ones!

For now, here is our favorite crock pot recipe Flavorful Pot Roast

1 envelope dry ranch salad dressing mix

1 envelope dry Italian salad dressing mix

1 envelope dry brown gravy mix
