In Praise Of The Simple Things In Life

 

     Sometimes the simple things in life mean so much. Before the pandemic, I bought a beef roast. It sat in the freezer for over two years. As we worked long hours and had no time to cook, it was overlooked. Elena discovered it. She had to go to Google to find the best way to cook it. She wondered if it had been frozen too long. Would it be edible once cooked?

    What followed was a defrost and 12 hours in a slow cooker. Elena added seasonings and followed other instructions in the recipe. Last night, I was surprised with the result. I had a beautiful gourmet meal. It was tender roast beef with vegetables and mashed potatoes. Elena has meat left over to make a great roast beef sandwich.
