I just created this recipe last week using left over Beef Pot Roast, made from Gail Welch's recipe for Pot roast with carrots and potatoes. I had made a 5 and a half pound Bottom of the Round Roast, and this is what I had left over, so I did a remix, and this is what I came up with, and it was really awesome. My husband marveled at how awesome and flavorful it was. Just a new way of creating a different type of meal with left overs, and it pleased everyone. I served it with Jasmine Rice.
