    Taste of Summer: Crockpot Pot Roast @kristynphipps @MFRW_ORG #RLFblog #MFRWorg

    Summer Pot Roast 
    Recipe by Kristyn M. Phipps, Activities Director, Marketing

    When you think of a retreat or conference, do you think of
    making a packing list? Traveling out of town? Hiring a sitter? Spending a ton
    of money? Holing up in a hotel for a weekend? Well, you won’t find any of that
    at the MFRW Summer Camp in July!
    Not only is camp free (yes, I said FREE!!), but it’s an
    incredible opportunity for any author to get involved in a writers network that
    only has benefits. Camp isn’t just another conference, it’s the conference to
    learn from your peers and share your knowledge with them. I’m not saying this
    because I’m on staff – I experienced this personally long before joining the
    staff.
    This amazing group not only shares knowledge and gives
    advice, but it teaches and helps its members succeed. There is a common bond
    between the authors that I dare say you cannot find anywhere else. Why? Because
    everyone has a voice, and that voice is always heard. We have and give the opportunity
    to make a difference in the lives and careers of others.

    Today, I’d like to share my recipe for my summer pot roast – only when the ingredients have spent time cooking together do they come together in a beautiful dinner medley!

    Summer Camp
    Pot Roast

    Ingredients:
    1 roast (2-3 pounds)
    7-10 red skin potatoes, washed and halved
    1 small bag of baby carrots
    1 beef bouillon cube
    1 c water
    Seasoning Mix: 1/4 tsp of each: garlic salt, black pepper,
    thyme, sage, rosemary, oregano, and parsley
    Instructions:
    (1) Place prepared potatoes, carrots, and bouillon cube in
    the bottom of the crockpot.
    (2) Rub the Seasoning Mix into all sides of the roast and
    place it on top of the veggies.
    (3) Pour water over the roast to let the loose seasonings
    mix in the bottom.
    (4) Cook on low setting to your liking – about 6 to 8 hours.
    Do not overcook as meat will become dry.
    Served best with a French loaf and your favorite green
    veggie!
