I came across this recipe while reading Nora Ephron's hysterical book, Heartburn. It's peppered with recipes throughout. This one sounds rather strange, as you just dump it all in a pot and shove it in the oven. I was amazed and delighted when it turned out to be delicious. Not my mainstay pot roast, but one I cook when short on prep time, or in the mood for something different. Doesn't get any easier than this! It makes great sandwiches the next day.

4 lbs beef roast
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 package dry onion soup mix

2 cups red wine
1 crushed bay leaf
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Directions:
1. Cover and bake in a 350 oven until tender 3 1/2 hours, or so.
