This one is pretty cheap and really easy. It also makes one heck of a hearty meal.

Beef Roast

1 Medium to Large Chuck Roast
2 ( large ) Jars Heinz Beef Gravy

Cut chuck roast into 3/4 inch to 1 inch square pieces.

Put the roast and the gravy into your slow cooker and set on low. Stir occasionally until roast is tender.

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

8 to 10 Redskin Potatoes
Milk
Butter
2 cloves garlic ( minced )

Melt the butter in a sauce pan.
Add in the minced garlic and cook on medium heat until garlic is softened.

Cook potatoes ( washed well and quartered but NOT peeled ) in usual manner
Mash them like you normally would.
When mashing, before adding milk, add in the butter/garlic mixture.
If too thick, then add milk.

Serve by plating mashed potatoes, then spooning the beef and gravy mix over top.
