CROCKPOT SWISS STEAK DINNER
My mother would make this when I was growing up but not in a crockpot. She has all her recipes in her head pretty much so I tried to duplicate it. I tweeked it a little, so don't tell her, and this is what I came up with. It was so darn good and all ready by the time I got home from work! Love my crockpot!

Steps:
- 1. Cut your steak into cubes and flatten them a little, place in the flour, salt and pepper in a ziplock bag. Shake and coat the steak. Brown in the olive oil on both sides.
- 2. In your crockpot layer your potatoes, carrots, beef and onions. In a small bowl combine your mushroom soup with the tomatoes then pour over the top.
- 3. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or until the meat and veggies are tender. Sprinkle with parsley before serving. Enjoy.
- 4. Note: If you do not use a liner, remember to spray your crockpot with cooking spray to prevent any sticking and to make clean up easier.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Look for a chuck roast or round steak that is at least 1 inch thick. These cuts are tough, but they will become tender when braised.
- Brown the beef before braising: This will help to develop flavor and color.
- Use a good quality braising liquid: Beef broth, red wine, or tomato sauce are all good options.
- Add vegetables to the braising liquid: Carrots, onions, and celery are classic choices, but you can also use other vegetables that you like.
- Season the braising liquid well: Salt, pepper, and garlic are essential, but you can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Braise the beef low and slow: The longer you braise the beef, the more tender it will become. Aim for at least 2 hours, but you can braise the beef for up to 4 hours.
- Serve the Swiss steak with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice.
Conclusion:
Swiss steak is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a hit with the family. By following these tips, you can make a delicious and tender Swiss steak that everyone will love.
