Here is the other slow cooker recipe I thought of. It comes from a cookbook
called Diabetic Slow Cooker. This book is produced by the editors of
Diabetic Living.
This is good over rice or mashed potatoes.
Pot Roast and Onions
PREP: 15 minutes SLOW COOK: 8 to 10 hours (low) or 4 to 5 hours (high)
MAKES: 8 servings (3 ounces meat and about 3 tablespoons sauce each)
1 2- to 2 1 / 2 -pound boneless beef chuck pot roast
2 medium onions, cut into wedges
1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1 / 4 cup water
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 to 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish [I omitted this ingredient.]
1 / 2 teaspoon salt
1 / 4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons cold water
1. Trim fat from roast. If necessary, cut roast to fit in a 3 1 / 2 - or
4-quart slow cooker. Place roast in the cooker. Top with onions. In a small
bowl combine tomato sauce, the 1 / 4 cup water, the mustard, horseradish,
salt, and pepper; pour over all in cooker.
2. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or on high-heat
setting for 4 to 5 hours.
3. Transfer meat and onions to a serving platter; cover to keep warm. For
sauce, transfer cooking liquid to a small saucepan; skim off fat. In a small
bowl stir together flour and the 2 tablespoons cold water. Stir into mixture
in saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly; cook
and stir for 1 minute more. Serve the sauce with roast and onions. If
desired, served with steamed broccoli.
PER SERVING: 170 cal., 5 g total fat (2 g sat. fat), 67 mg chol., 376 mg
sodium, 5 g carb. (1 g fiber, 1 g sugars), 25 g pro. Exchanges: 3.5 lean
meat, 0.5 vegetable, 1 fat.
Enjoy,
Becky

If it still works, and heats up fine, then, regardless of age, it is still
good, and more than likely, better made than what one buys today!

Hi,
I thought my CrockPot would be too old to use, but I found that not to be
true at all. Mine is a 5 quart Rival CrockPot that is approximately 25
years old, and it works like a charm. Even the finish inside the crock is
still good. I may get a new one some day, but this one is still working
fine.
Good luck.
Suzanne
