Freezer Meal: Paleo Turnip, Beet & Potato Roast

Ingredients

Bag 1:

  • 1 bottom round roast (the weight will depend on your personal needs)
  • 2-3 medium to large fresh beets
  • 2 large turnips
  • Fingerling potatoes (as many as fits/you would like)

Bag 2:

  • ½ of an onion pureed
  • 3 cups beef stock
  • 1 cup dry red wine

Instructions

Thoroughly wash all of the vegetables, you may choose to peel the beets and turnips or leave them natural.

Cut the beets and turnips into quarters, place in the large freezer bag with the meat and potatoes. You can place the pureed onion, beef stock, and dry red wine in a smaller freezer bag and store with the meat & veg bag or prepare those items on cooking day.

When ready to cook: remove from the freezer and place in the fridge about 24 to 36 hours before putting together in the crockpot. For best results, sear the roast before placing in the slow cooker.

Pour 3 cups of beef stock into the crock along with ½ cup onion puree and ½ to 1 cup dry red wine. Season to your preference, cook on low for 8 hours (depending how hot your crockpot runs).

Storage

Store your cooked roast in an airtight container in the refrigerator. I like to store meat and veg separately. It should be consumed within 3-4 days.

To reheat, you can microwave, but I prefer to use a pot on the stove.

Variations

There are many ways to make a turnip & beet beef roast, and you can customize the recipe to your liking. Here are some variations to consider:

  • If you like your food with a kick, add some red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to the marinade. You can also serve the roast with a side of hot sauce.
  • If you prefer your food on the sweeter side, add some honey or maple syrup to the marinade. You can also sprinkle some brown sugar on top of the roast before roasting it.
  • If you love herbs, add some rosemary, thyme, or sage to the marinade. You can also sprinkle some fresh herbs on top of the roast before roasting it.
  • If you want to add more vegetables to the dish, you can roast some carrots, parsnips, or sweet potatoes alongside the turnips and beets. Simply toss them in some olive oil and seasonings, and roast them for about 30 minutes.

No matter which variation you choose, the turnip & beet beef roast is sure to be a delicious and satisfying meal.

Pro Tips

Looking to make the perfect turnip and beet beef roast? Here are some pro tips to help you out:

  • Make sure to season your roast generously with salt and pepper before searing it. This will give it a nice crust and enhance the flavor.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure your roast is cooked to perfection. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
  • Don't be afraid to get creative with your vegetable choices. Carrots, rutabaga, and parsnips all make great additions to this dish.
  • To add extra depth of flavor, try deglazing the pan with red wine or beef broth after searing the roast.
  • Let your roast rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute and ensure a tender, juicy roast.

By following these pro tips, you'll be sure to impress your dinner guests with a delicious and perfectly cooked turnip and beet beef roast.
