Lick Your Plate Clean Crockpot Pot Roast


No pre-browning, and only 1-2 minutes to get this lick your plate clean,  5 ingredient dinner going in the morning!
It makes a delicious and rich, thick gravy with the pot roast!
Don't let the surprise ingredient of Ginger ale throw you off! I happen to use diet since my husband is diabetic.
This recipe came from a  local church cookbook, and I knew I had to try it as soon as a saw it.

Jan's Tip: double the "Gravy" ingredients, (all the ingredients other than the roast) Years ago I started doing this and find it is the perfect amount of gravy for my family.
