When I picked up the roast on sale for $2.99 a pound and looked at the label of $11.96 I thought about putting it back. It just seemed like a lot of money for one item. Ironically a pound of roast beef at the deli sells for up to $10 a pound.
I served the roast with mashed potatoes and green beans picked from our garden. After dinner, Dan got out the electric slicer my parents gave me for Christmas. The kids were mesmerized while he buzzed through the roast. Now we had plenty of lunch meat. Our daughter's favorite lunch is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. After becoming aware of a peanut allergy at school, she was thrilled to pack a nut free lunch. I was happy not to spend my time and money at the deli counter!
