Pot Roast with Horseradish Sauce
This is so good! The meat is tender and well seasoned, the veggies in the pot roast are so good and the sauce was awesome. I made a little biscuit to have with it and it was like my mom’s pot roast. And the green beans were so good! The brown butter sauce on them was so tasty!
