Sunday Dinner

I scoured my freezer and found a four pound, eye round, roast beef hiding all the way in the back. It dated back to October 2024 and I only paid $4.99 a pound for it. Those were the good ole days!! I partially defrosted it then cut it in half. Hubby and I don't need to eat a four pounder roast beef. Two pounds works out better for us. Plus, I created two meals instead of just one. 

I peeled five Idaho potatoes and placed them in my Insta Pot. I covered the potatoes in water and pressure cooked for eight minutes. Once done, I drained the pot of all the water, then added in some butter and milk and made mashed potatoes. Right in the pot. Easy peasy.

Hubby sautéed a package of mushrooms in extra virgin olive oil and minced garlic. He also made a cup or so of real beef gravy from the roast drippings. 

I had a few organic apples left over in the bottom of my fridge. Hubby peeled them, cut them and I seasoned them in cinnamon, lemon juice and brown sugar. I topped the pie with a mixture of old fashioned oats, one stick of melted butter, nutmeg, allspice, more brown sugar and cinnamon.

Now, that's what I call a Sunday Dinner!

  1. We would have cooked the whole thing and made dinners for later. It all looks great, especially the gravy and onions.
