Arm Roast

This dish was very easy prep and hardly ANY cook maintenance. If I may make a few recommendations for future pursuits:

Lately I've been into the whole 'cream of mushroom' scene and i feel that this is cause for more than one can of the soup. Sure you can add water but when you allow the soup mix to cling to the meat it allows all sides of the roast to become just a bit more tender. I didn't have Lipton soup mix so I used those Frenches fried onions. It worked out well but when cooking an arm roast one has to be wary of the built up fat along the top. This problem (that I made for myself) could be fixed by waiting to add the fried onions until AFTER you remove said fattiness. It was delicious and my roommates loved it!

OH MY GOODNESS!!! I was a bit skeptical with this recipe -- it was too easy. But when that roast came out of the oven, my husband and I could not stop eating. The two of us ate the WHOLE thing. I did add extra cream of mushroom soup and used the lipton's dry onion soup mix. I jazzed it up a bit with some fresh mushrooms that I threw in a skillet during the last few minutes of cooking. FRIGGIN DELICIOUS!!!! I will never cook a roast differently again.
