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:
- Use high-quality beef for the best results. Look for cuts that are well-marbled with fat, such as chuck roast or round steak.
- Browning the beef before braising it adds flavor and color to the dish. Be sure to brown the meat in a hot skillet until it is browned on all sides.
- Use a good quality dry red wine for the braising liquid. A full-bodied wine, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, will add rich flavor to the dish.
- Add plenty of vegetables to the braising liquid. Vegetables such as onions, carrots, and celery add flavor and texture to the dish.
- Cook the Swiss steak low and slow. Braising is a slow-cooking method that allows the beef to become tender and flavorful. Cook the steak for at least 2 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
- Serve the Swiss steak with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice. These side dishes will help to soak up the delicious braising liquid.
Conclusion:
Swiss steak is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its tender beef, rich gravy, and flavorful vegetables, Swiss steak is a dish that is sure to warm your heart and soul. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give Swiss steak a try. You won't be disappointed.
