3 Envelope Roast

This recipe has circulated around social media, and it is really easy and a favorite at the Green house. 

1 packet of Ranch dressing mix
1 packet of Italian dressing mix
1 packet of brown gravy mix
1 1/2 cups water
4 lb roast
3 chopped carrots (or a couple of handfuls of carrot chips)
3 small potatoes, quartered

Put this all in the crock pot and cook for 6 hours.  Serve with a green salad. 

Peaches in White Balsamic

That is pretty much the recipe.  Cut up peaches (not from a can - a real live peach) and drizzle white balsamic over them.  They are amazing. 

Corn-Avocado-Tomato Salad

I don't really know how to qualify this---is it a dip?  a salad? a side? 
All I know is that it is healthy and it is YUMMY!  I started eating it with chips, and then moved to a fork, and later a spoon.  I ate it with a little grilled chicken mixed in, too, and later a little romaine lettuce. 

3 ears of corn, brushed with olive oil and sea salt and toasted on the grill (and then cut off the cob)
2 avocados, cut into small chunks
2 handfuls of cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in half

Juice from one lime
1 tablespoon of olive oil

Mix all these things together in a bowl and try to not eat the entire bowl full.  It is summer deliciousness!!
