Shredded Beef with Onions

A melt-in-your-mouth slow-cooker roast that shreds into sweet, softened onions. It goes great with mashed potatoes or roasted sweet potatoes and any green vegetable.

Ingredients

• 1 roast of your choosing
• Salt and pepper
• 2–3 large white or sweet onions, sliced
• 1 can (about 2 cups) peach, apricot, or mango nectar

Instructions

1. Roll the roast in salt and pepper and brown on all sides in a hot pan.
2. Slice the onions and place them in the bottom of your slow cooker.
3. Add the whole browned roast on top of the onions.
4. Pour the nectar over the meat and set your slow cooker to 8 hours.
5. Once the meat is falling apart and the onions have softened, shred the meat into the onions. Pour off the juices and thicken them a little if you like.
6. Serve with sides of your choosing — mashed potatoes or roasted sweet potatoes and any green vegetable.
