We love swiss steak. I wasn't sure how big a "large" can of tomatoes was though and if it was supposed to be stewed or diced or crushed or what. I used two 15 ounce cans of diced. I also cooked it longer because other swiss steak recipes I've tried are usually cooked more like 6-8 hours at least those that have worked in my crockpot. I made egg noodles to go with it instead of potatoes because that's what I had.

I made this recipe for my family and it came out very good...easy too. My family enjoyed it and i will make again...especially on a cool winter night.
