Swiss Steak

Well our family meals came to an end last week. Although I have a few more tags to pick, they are easy ones and this meal isn't one of them. I am working on a new list and maybe even a pantry list for you all. Here is a great recipe for your crockpot. So many of us like a home cooked meal, but with all we do during the day, it's alot to ask that we make a dinner also. This one is easy, easy. We serve with mashed potatoes and a veggie. Enjoy.

Swiss Steak Makes 6 servings

3 T. all purpose flour
1 t. ground mustard
1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 # beef boneless round, tip or chuck steak, about 3/4" thick, cut into 6 pieces.
2 T. vegetable oil
1 large onion, sliced
1 large bell pepper, sliced
1 can (14 1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 cloves garlic, minced

1. Mix flour, mustard and salt. Coat beef with flour mixture.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook beef in oil about 15 minutes, turning once, until brown.
3. Place beef in 3 1/2 - 6 quart slow cooker; top with onion and bell pepper. Mix tomatoes and garlic; pour over beef and vegetables. Cover and cook on low setting 7 - 9 hours or until beef is tender.
