Ingredients

2 lb Beef Chuck Roast
1 cup Carrots diced
1 cup Celery diced
1 cup White Onion diced
14.5 oz Diced Tomatoes
1/2 cup Vegetable Broth low sodium
6 oz Tomato Paste
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk or milk of choice
1/2 cup Sugar Free Cranberry Juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Dried Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste

Optional

1 tablespoon Arrowroot Powder

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Place the beef chuck roast in the slow cooker along with the other ingredients. I recommend slicing off any excess fat from the roast before placing in the slow cooker. Mix the ingredients together.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours. The beef should shred easily when it's finished. If it does not shred, it needs to cook longer or you can cut with a kitchen scissors.
When finished, you can optional mix in the thickener by combing the arrowroot powder with one tablespoon of water then stirring it in. Serve with cauliflower mash or healthier mashed potatoes.
Store in the refrigerator up to 7 days or in the freezer up to 60 days.

Notes
