DIVA'S POT ROAST

3-4 pounds of pot roast

1 package of pot roast mix seasoning
1 large onion (chopped)
2 stalks of celery (chopped)
3 tablespoons of oil
1 pound of fresh carrots cut into 1 2 inch pieces
1 12-14 oz. can of diced tomatoes (may substitute a can of tomato soup)
1 can of brown gravy
8 ounces of water
1/4 cup of red wine (optional)
salt and pepper to taste to your liking

In a large dutch pan heat oil, add celery and onions. sautee until onions become translucent.
Add roast beef..browning lightly on both sides.
Then add tomatoes,wine, carrots. and brown gravy, also adding the 8 ounces of water.
Season with salt and pepper,stirring well.
Cover and simmer on low heat for 3-4 hours, or until the beef is to your liking
I like mine to be falling apart, where not even a knife is needed to cut the beef.
Serve with your favorite rice, potato, or noodles.
