I really do love pot roast and I love this Italian style pot roast just as much as the original. The onions, garlic, tomatoes, and other seasonings make this pot roast taste so yummy! I usually like to make a pasta dish to go with this. Nothing to crazy. I will usually cook up some sort of pasta. Penne is preferred, but I use what I have. I will add in fresh garlic and some of the onions and tomatoes from the pot roast. Oh, can’t forget a little bit of butter too! Sometimes I will also make some garlic bread to go with it. My kids love cheesy garlic bread! Whatever you decide to make with this pot roast will be yummy. The most important part is the pot roast anyways!
