Is there any better comfort food than a Perfect Pot Roast? When the delicious meat and vegetables are slow cooked together it is so good! The recipe I use is one that Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond, featured on her blog several years ago.
It is similar to many recipes, except that you brown the vegetables in the Dutch oven right before you brown the meat on all sides. I love the rustic look and the flavor that it gives to the vegetables.
When I make it, I only use 4-6 carrots and then add 2-3 potatoes (and brown them also). I use 4 cups of beef broth, and leave out the red wine. I add a bay leaf instead of the fresh herbs.
It is the perfect pot roast! It will be fall-apart tender! I shred the leftover meat and we use it for sandwiches the next day. Enjoy!!!!

How cute are these teeny tiny bite-sized cakes? These would be perfect for a tea party or a dessert tray.
The Nordic Ware Charm Bundt pan makes one dozen little cakes, each about 2 inches by 2 inches. Each shape holds about 1 tablespoon of cake batter.
The pan has six different vintage designs and could be used with any Bundt cake recipe. You could also try different cake, cookie or gelatin recipes. They could be cute with a mini dollop of whipped cream and a raspberry or blueberry on top.
These are easy to decorate with just a light dusting of powdered sugar. These lemon charm Bundt cakes would be perfect for a spring tea party. Have fun trying new ideas and techniques! Happy Spring!
To fill this pan, you would only need about 1 cup of cake batter. When I made the mini-bundt cakes, I saved back just enough batter to try these. Below is the link with the recipe.
The pan is available from Amazon.
