1 1/2 lb. beef round steak (1/2" thick)
1 tbsp. shortening
1 (16 oz.) can tomato wedges
1/2 med. onion, thinly sliced
1 sm. clove garlic, minced
2 tsp. beef flavored gravy base
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. salt
2 med. green peppers, cut in 1/2" strips

Trim excess fat from steak; cut meat into 2 x 1/4 inch strips. In medium skillet brown meat strips in hot shortening; drain off excess fat. Drain tomatoes, reserving liquid. Add reserved tomato liquid, onion slices, garlic clove, beef flavored gravy base, Worcestershire sauce, salt and dash pepper to brown meat strips. Cover tightly and simmer mixture over low heat for 50 minutes.

Stir in green pepper strips and tomato wedges. Cook meat mixture, covered, until green pepper is tender, about 6-8 minutes.

Remove meat and vegetables, to serving bowl with slotted spoon. Reserve cooking liquid to pass, adding hot water to make 1/2 cup, if necessary. Makes 6 servings.
