Creamy Swiss Steak Recipe

By traciesparks

"When I was working, I'd put this Swiss steak in the slow cooker before I left for the day," recalls Gloria Carpenter of Bancroft, Michigan. A creamy mushroom sauce made with canned soup nicely flavors the tender round steak. "It's delicious and so simple to make."

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 2 cans (10-3/4 ounces each) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
