One of my staples: Crock Pot Roast.

1 roast of your choice, I always go with whatever is on sale, and what I can cram into the crock pot. I prefer a bone in cut with lots of fat on it, in either beef or pork.

1 can of cream of whatever soup. Or a packet of dried onion soup mix.

Vegetables to your liking. I prefer onion, carrots and potatoes. If using onion soup mix, you may or may not want to use the onion.

Attempt to place the roast in the crock pot. If it doesn't fit, cut it in half and cook the rest up later. Put in the soup mix or canned soup. On top of the meat, on the bottom of the meat, rubbed on, whatever. Add about a soup can worth of water. Place the crock pot on the low setting, and let it cook overnight. Add vegetables (if you feel like it) an hour or two before you plan on eating. When the roast pretty much falls apart when you tease it with a fork, it's done. If it is solid, and you prefer it that way, it's probably done as well. If you don't want to let it cook overnight/all day, just put it on high and keep an eye on it until it is done to your preference. Add liquid as needed during the cooking process.

Rice can also be added instead of vegetables.
