I realized that last month I spent way over budget for groceries, so I am tightening the reins a bit this month.
Eating through our pantry and going cheap! I try not to buy meat, since we bought 1/4 cow last fall, but I found stew meat marked way down yesterday when I ran in to just get 1 thing. I never come out with one thing! We are having beef tips to celebrate the great deal.

French Dip in Crock pot
1 medium onion, sliced or chopped
3 lb Beef roast, it doesn't matter what cut.
1 envelope onion soup mix
2 bouillon cubes
1 can water or red wine or beer
1 can beef broth
Cook on high 5 hours or on low for 8-10 hours. This is usually more of a shredded beef sandwich, but the Au jus is yummy.
Serve with provolone cheese on toasted and buttered hougie buns.
