Dooley's Birthday

For Dooley's birthday we made our first recipe from the ATK Slow Cooker cookbook. Doolia had gotten a great deal on beef roasts at Kroger--buy one get one free! So Dooley decided that the "Southwestern Style Pot Roast" was just the thing for his birthday dinner. We started early in the morning, before Doolia went to work. It was a little hard to start the day mincing three onions and EIGHT minced cloves of garlic! But we got everything into the crockpot and going by 7:15 am.

When I got home from work a little after 4pm, the condo smelled wonderful! I put some rice in the rice steamer and when everyone else arrived home, we served up this delectable roast--that was literally falling off the fork as I tried to pull it out of the pot to slice. It was so tender that I couldn't really slice it--it just fell into shreds with the least pressure. We served it thus: a bed of rice, the meat, covered in the sauce, and topped with fresh chopped onions and tomatoes, plus a tad of shredded cheddar cheese. It was fantastic!

Then for dessert, Doolia made another apple crisp (from Cook's Illustrated September/October 2010 issue) made from giant Jonagold apples our neighbors had given us. We invited the neighbors to join us in dessert, and we had a merry time celebrating Dooley's birthday.
