    One-pot meals certainly come in handy when the temperatures start to drop slowly and the leaves begin to turn bright colors after crispy nights. Something warm, hearty, and body-nourishing is recommended, besides the occasional cup of herbal tea throughout the day, to ease into times of shorter sunlight hours.

    Paleo Pot Roast

    If you don't have a slow-cooker or a crock pot, now is the wise time to invest in one - the Paleo stews, curries, sauces, soups, and roasts you can create are endless.

    Slow cooking your meals can help you save precious time and money (preparing larger batches of food at once that can be reheated or frozen for later use); at the same time, they can even add an extra beneficial element of nutrition to your diet.

    When you take your time (your slow cooker's time) in the kitchen, you can make even the toughest meat scrumptiously tender and mouthwateringly delicious. Of course, it is easy with a chuck roast as they are known for being the "perfect pot roast."

    Before you go to work in the morning, put all the ingredients in the slow cooker, and 6-8 hours later, you will be greatly rewarded with that perfect roast.

    Try this recipe once or twice, and in time you will see what all the slow-cooking craze is about. Ladle the juice and vegetables into your bowl and allow the tender meat to fall apart between forkfuls - slow cooking at its very best.
