Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen Sweet, savory, and beyond simple, this pot roast gets delectably tender and flavorful in the slow cooker, thanks to fragrant apple cider.

Ingredients

1 c. apple cider
3 tbsp. tomato paste
2 tbsp. flour
2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
kosher salt
Pepper
3 medium parsnips
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 medium onion
4 clove garlic
2 sprig fresh rosemary
1 bottom round roast or chuck roast

Instructions

In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, whisk together the cider, tomato paste, flour, Worcestershire, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add the parsnips, sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, and rosemary and toss to combine.
Season the roast with 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper and nestle among the vegetables. Cook, covered, until the meat is tender, 6 to 7 hours on high or 8 to 9 hours on low.
Transfer the roast to a cutting board and slice. Serve with the vegetables.
