How To Make swiss steak,with a sweet surprise twist!

Step 1

With a fork, pierce steak at 1/2 inch intervals, on both sides. Cut into serving size portions. In a large bowl, blend sesonings, tomatoes, water, pineapple juice. Add steak, and refrigerate for for 1/2 hour. Then remove steak, ...Save the liquid. ..celery, carrots, onions and mushrooms are added later.

Step 2

In a large skillet brown the drained steak, in a little oil. Add saved liquid, add celery, carrots,onions and mushrooms. Bring to a low boil,reduce heat. Cover and simmer 1 hour, or until steak is tender. Turning occasionally. If needed, add a little water. I also added a dash of beef browning liquid,for color.
Step 3

I serve this with mashed potatoes and green beans. It is also great with rice. Or noodles like my: HOMEMADE NOODLES,..no waiting to dry. Foto #3 Foto # 2..HOLIDAY PINEAPPLE PIE
