MY MOM'S WONDERFUL SWISS STEAK 
1 lg. round steak
2 onions
2 green peppers
1 - 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 c. water
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper

Chop onion and green pepper and saute in greased pan. Then spoon out in a bowl and set aside. Cut round steak into 4 pieces.

Pound flour into both sides and pound really well, it makes it tender too, you'll be able to cut it with a fork! Brown meat on both sides.

Put chopped onion and green pepper mixture on top on each piece of meat and cover well, if you have to chop a little more do it, it will add to flavor.

Then take tomato sauce and add the water, stir and pour over meat. Simmer on low heat for a couple hours or until meat is tender enough to cut with fork.

If done in an electric frying pan, cook on about 250-300 degrees. Check frequently, mixture will start to thicken, try to keep it from sticking too much; add more water when necessary.

Make this a gravy consistency, not too watery. Make mashed potatoes, add a vegetable and there's your dinner!

I've been looking for a recipe that I made over 25 years ago. I searched my cookbooks, and just couldn't find it. I finally searched the internet, and this recipe came up. This is, or darn close to the recipe I've been searching for. I served the Swiss Steak on Wide noodles. Thanks so much. I remembered making this, and the meat was just so tender and yummy.

Did your recipe almost the same. Only BBQ'd the meat with southwest bbq sauce. Crazy.
Thank You

First time I made it it was lacking something, but was good.

It was missing four things which I added the second time and it ended up looking and tasting just the way my grandmother made it. 1 teaspoon dried yellow mustard flour, 1 teaspoon kitchen bouquet, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 (15 oz.) can of sliced stewed tomatoes.
