I call this my Italian Pot Roast. A rich hearty meal in the slow cooker or oven. I have made this recipe so many different ways over the years.

It is a great way to use leftover veggies and you can serve with pasta, rice, potatoes or on top of a piece of thick toasted garlic parmesan bread. VIDEO RECIPE at the end of this post. Enjoy.
