The Best Ever Pot Roast

I've been showing my crock pot lots of love lately and decided to try a roast. I can confidently perfect a filet mignon with a shallot port reduction, but for some reason throwing a roast in the crock pot was intimidating to me. Ha. The joke was on me. Ready for the best pot roast/easiest meal you'll make all week? 
Here it is:

 Pot Roast
 Adapted from Food.Com

You'll Need:
3-5lb Roast
1 Packet of Italian Dressing Mix
1 Packet of Ranch Dressing Mix
1 Packet of Brown Gravy Mix
1 Bag of Baby Carrots
1 2.5lb Bag of Baby Reds
1 Large Onion
1-1.5 C of water


Cut veggies (potatoes in half, onion in big chunks)

Dump all veggies in the bottom of the crock pot

Add thawed Roast

Dump mixes directly on top of roast
 

Pour water over the roast (if you don't want dark spots on your roast be sure there is no seasoning on it.It will make it look burnt)
 

Cook on low for 7-10 hours
 

 Serves 6-8
