Day 23 August 28 Tri-Tip Pot Roast with Costco's tri-tip steaks

The tri tip steaks are tender and the pot roast I made with them turned out great.

1 pkg Lipton onion soup mix

Costco package tri tip steaks 2-3 pounds

2 large new potatoes diced in small cubes (use more if increase stock)

1/2 pkg baby carrots whole (increase number of carrots)

1/2 med onion

2 Tbsp canola or olive oil

2-3 cups of beef stock (low sodium)

dredge salted and peppered tri-tip steaks in whole wheat flour in non-stick pan with lid. I used my deep saute pan. brown meat and remove.

Saute sliced half onion Add potatoes, carrots (Use more than I did) add browned meat, add onion soup and 2-3 cups of beef stock and one package Lipton dry Onion soup mix.

Bring to boil and simmer for 1-1 1/2 hours. No more.

Serve hot. or if live alone like I do.  Cool remaining. Divide into serviings and place in zip-loc or other containers. If you wish, remove meat and chill. Remove fat and you can thicken with some au jus and add back into the liquid and make a gravy. I liked it plain.

Delicious, perfect for soft food diet also. Mash carrots and potatoes.
