Thursday
Meal: Slow-Braised Chuck Roast with Del Monte Vegetables
Description: Meat. A small chuck roast is seared, then braised low and slow in chicken broth with onion and garlic until fork-tender. Canned Del Monte vegetables are added near the end so they warm through in the rich braising liquid.
Sale items used: Chuck Roast, Del Monte Vegetables
Prep time: 195 minutes
Serving note: Use 1.25 lbs of chuck roast (assumed total weight) with 3 cans of Del Monte vegetables (for example green beans, carrots, and corn), drained. Sear the roast, add 1.5 cups of chicken broth, and braise covered at 300 F for 2.5 to 3 hours. Stir in the drained vegetables for the last 10 minutes. Make-ahead tip: braise the roast the day before and refrigerate it in its liquid. Reheat gently with the vegetables and the flavor will be even better. Expect about 1 cup of leftovers.
