✨ Let Me Tell You About This Dish…

You know how some people say,
“I don’t like roast…”

Yeah… this is THAT recipe that changes their mind 👏

This started as a simple slow cooker chuck roast, and somehow turned into one of the most flavorful, cozy, lick-the-plate-clean pasta dishes I’ve ever made.

And the best part?
👉 It’s EASY
👉 It uses what you already have
👉 And it tastes like you worked way harder than you did 😏

💥 The Secret (Don’t Skip This Part)

I’m telling you right now…

The magic is in the roast juice.

Not just a little—
👉 an EXTRA ¼ cup of that slow cooker juice

It deepens the flavor, makes it richer, and gives it that “what IS that?!” kind of taste.

Also… garlic lovers, this is your moment 🧄
I use those frozen garlic pods from Target or Whole Foods—and I double them because… why not?

🛒 What You’ll Need

• 2.5–3 lb chuck roast (slow cooked & shredded)
• 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
• 1 cup beef broth
• ¼ cup + a little extra roast juice (trust me)
• ½ cup red wine and white chardonnay 🍷
• 1–2 cups cooked carrots (from your roast)
• 1–2 cups cooked onions (from your roast)
• Frozen garlic pods (use 2–4… or double it 😉) You can never had enough!!
• 2–3 bay leaves
• Red pepper flakes (optional for a little kick 🌶️)
• Salt & pepper
• 8–12 oz brown rice & quinoa spiral pasta
• Fresh basil (optional)

🚫 No parmesan needed—this flavor stands on its own!

👩‍🍳 How It All Comes Together

1. Slow Cook That Roast

Cook your chuck roast low and slow until it falls apart (8-10 hours on low)

👉 Save the juice. Guard it with your life.

2. Cook Your Pasta

Boil your brown rice & quinoa spiral pasta according to directions.
Drain and set aside.

3. Build the Sauce

In a large pan, add:

• Crushed tomatoes
• Beef broth
• Wine (red and white chardonnay)
• Garlic pods
• Bay leaves
• Red pepper flakes

Let it simmer for about 5–10 minutes so those flavors start working together.

4. Add the Flavor Bombs 💣

Now stir in:

• Shredded roast
• Cooked carrots & onions
• That extra ¼ cup (plus a little more 😉) roast juice

👉 THIS is what makes it next level.

5. Mix It All Together

Add your cooked pasta right into the pan and toss everything together.

Let it simmer for a few minutes so the pasta soaks up all that goodness, but not too long so it doesn’t

get soggy…

6. Serve It Up

Remove the bay leaves and serve warm.

💡 Real-Life Tips From My Kitchen

• Double the garlic. Always.
• Red wine = deeper, richer flavor – the deeper the better
• White chardonnay = lighter, smoother vibe
• Leftovers? EVEN BETTER the next day
• Perfect for feeding a crowd or meal prepping

Basically—it checks every box.

And if you’ve got someone in your house who “doesn’t like roast”…

Then just wait for the reaction 😏

I wish my pictures made you want to jump out of your skin and straight into this bowl… because trust me, it’s THAT good 😍
