Let's Go Mountaineers!

So how about those Mountaineers!! 

Steve and I waited all day for this game to come on! We spent the day Saturday doing things around the house and I went grocery shopping. We also carved pumpkins and I made some roasted pumpkin seeds. 

I made taco rollups for dinner click here for the recipe they were sooooo good but they didn't look a thing like the picture which was fine with me. I don't care how they look as long as they taste amazing! Here's a picture of what they were suppose to look like...and I'll spare you from my disaster of a picture

And then we tuned in to watch the WVU Game! What a game I was nervous for a little but Steve was cool, calm and collected as usual. After the win we were both ecstatic! I wore a West Virginia shirt to the grocery store and got so many compliments! Today (Sunday) we just finished watching the Steelers beat the Eagles and are enjoying a relaxing weekend at home. I turned the couch into a pillow nest and have been laying here working and watching football all day.

For dinner we are going to have left over eggplant parm that I froze a few weeks ago. I've never froze individual pieces of eggplant parm and then reheated them so I wonder how they are going to be ill let you all know! Happy Sunday!

Funfetti Cake Dip

I saw this recipe on Pinterest and have been thinking about it ever since. My girlfriends are getting together tomorrow night for a girls night Pinterest Party!

Crock Pot Beef Pot Roast

So despite Steve's disapproval and the ninety degree Texas weather I made a pot roast for dinner! Steve says its a winter meal but I have been making summer meals all summer and I was craving something hearty and wholesome. Also it's never really going to feel like winter here so why not. Heres the recipe it was really easy and really delicious! Perfect fall meal even if it feels like summer haha 

Crock Pot Beef Pot Roast

Ingredients: 
- Small to medium size rump roast
- 1 envelope onion soup mix
- 1 envelope brown gravy mix
- 1 individual size serving apple sauce
- 2 cups water
- Small bag carrots (I used baby carrots)
- 1 onion sliced
- Potatoes (I used 8 little red potatoes cut in fourths)
- Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions: 
 Sear the roast in a frying pan with a small amount of oil, sear it well on all sides then put the roast in the crock pot and top with veggies. Mix envelope mixes with water and apple sauce then pour over everything. 

Set the crock pot to low and let cook for at least 8 to 10 hours. You can make stew out of the left overs thats probably what ill end up doing.
