Three Ingredient Oven Roasted Pot Roast

Posted on December 20, 2013 By Melissa T. entrees

I know there is a sort of faux pas about using “cream of” soups in recipes or when cooking lately. This is just one of those times you will have to let down your bias and TRY it. This delicious, oven-baked pot roast recipe is a crowd pleaser, a huge hit and a delicious addition to your weekly menus. It is simple and will not disappoint!

What you need:

3-5 lb rump roast (Depending on how many people you want to serve. I find 2.5-3 pounds is perfect for my husband and I for one meal and then we can both take lunch the next day. Normally a 4-5 lb roast will serve 4-6 people).
1 large can cream of mushroom soup
1 packet of Lipton onion sou p mix
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Place roast in a large baking dish double lined with aluminum foil. I do one piece vertically and another diagonally, long enough to fully cover the roast.

I salt and pepper the roast to taste (you do not have to do this step… it will still come out amazing)

Cover with the cream of mushroom soup and onion mix.

Seal the tin foil over the roast making sure it is completely covered.

Bake at for 2 to 2.5 hours. (Depending n the size roast typically you would cook about 30-35 minutes per pound.)

I normally serve with mashed potatoes and fresh steamed green beans.

Enjoy!
