I was given a few bags of the <a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tastefulselections.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tasteful Selections <\/a>potatoes to try. I was hesitant at first because, really- isn&#8217;t a potato a potato? You load it up with butter, salt and sour cream and you have a meal! Well, I was wrong. These small potatoes from Tasteful selections are have a lot of flavor, you don&#8217;t need to add a lot of salt or butter to make them taste good. They are excellent in this crock pot roast recipe because they come prewashed and their small size means no cutting. They also come in purple&#8230;. and that is just cool, especially if you have little boys. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>You can print a <a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kqzyfj.com\/click-3731986-10415416\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$0.50 off coupon for Tasteful Selections<\/a> at Coupons.com. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kqzyfj.com\/click-3731986-10415416\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17171\" title=\"tasteful selections coupon\" src=\"\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/files\/2010\/12\/Picture-19.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"284\" height=\"157\" \/><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>This post is linked to <a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.beautyandbedlam.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tasty Tuesday<\/a> and <a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/lifeasmom.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ultimate Recipe Swap.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>More crock pot\u00a0 recipes you might like&#8230;<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"entry-title\"><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/bbq-pork-in-the-crock-pot\/\">BBQ Pork: Slow Cooker<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"entry-title\"><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/crock-pot-apricot-pork-chops\/\">Apricot Pork Chops: Slow Cooker<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"entry-title\"><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/crock-pot-chicken-and-potatoes\/\">Chicken and Potatoes: Slow Cooker<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"entry-title\"><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/smothered-chicken-in-the-crock-pot\/\">Smothered Chicken: Slow Cooker<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"entry-title\"><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/crock-pot-beef-stew-with-chickpeas\/\">Beef Stew with Chickpeas: Slow Cooker<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wondering what to make for dinner?
