Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Depression Era Swiss Steak Directions:

Trim any visible excess fat from the round steak and pat the pieces dry with paper towels.
Season the steak lightly with black pepper.
Spread the sliced onion evenly across the bottom of a 5- to 7-quart slow cooker.
Scatter the sliced green bell pepper over the onion.
Arrange the steak pieces over the vegetables in a single layer, allowing slight overlap if needed.
Pour the diced tomatoes and their juices evenly over the steak without adding water or broth.
Cover and cook on LOW for 7–8 hours or on HIGH for 3 1/2–4 hours, until the steak is fork-tender and the vegetables have softened into the tomato gravy.
Gently stir the onions, peppers, and tomatoes around the steak without breaking the meat apart.
Taste and add salt and black pepper at the table, if desired.
Serve each steak portion with plenty of the thick tomato gravy, onions, and peppers.
