Healthy Beef Pot Roast Recipe








There's nothing better on a rainy, blustery day then filling your kitchen with warm, savory scents as you cook up some old fashioned comfort food.


This roast is a perfect choice, it's warm, rich, spicy flavors will make you wish it was dinner time right now!





If you thought you'd never find a healthy recipe for pot roast, look no further, it's all here, all the flavors you love, with none of the fat you don't want.





The time you take to simmer the meat slowly will make it melt in your mouth tender, and will give all the flavors a chance to blend together for a wonderful dish you'll go back to again and again.





The orange juice will give it a little citrus tang, that will brighten the dish, and give it a clean, fresh taste.





The warmth of the allspice will remind you of days gone by, when grandma spent all day cooking a roast for Sunday dinner with the family.





With this easy, healthy recipe, there's no need to wait for the weekend, give it a try tonight!





Pair it up with some egg noodles, and your favorite vegetable, for a complete meal your family will love.
