Slow Cooker Round Steak

Yummy! I was first introduced to the recipe by Mrs. Anita, but then later found it in my crock-pot recipe book. This dish is so easy to create and goes great with mashed potatoes (because you can use the gravy in the crock pot for gravy on your potatoes). I hope you enjoy.

• 1 1/2 lb. round steak, trimmed and cut into four pieces (you can usually find this pre-trimmed and pre-cut at your local grocery store)
• 1 tbsp flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tsp pepper
• 1 tbsp oil
• 1 can of cream of mushroom soup
• 1 package of dry onion soup mix
• 1/4 cup milk
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 medium onion, quartered
• 1 can sliced mushrooms, drained

Place round steak in a large ziploc bag. Combine flour, salt, and pepper and toss in bag. Shake bag, coating steak evenly. Heat oil and large skillet over medium heat. Add steak to bag and brown sides to enhance flavor and presentation. Add steak and juices to crock-pot. Add soup, soup mix, milk, water, bay leaf, onion, and mushrooms and mix well. Turn slow cooker on low and cook for 5-6 hours or until steak is tender. Remove bay leaf and serve. Enjoy!
