Round Steak Porridge

Greetings One and all!  To make this receipe, you will need a crockpot, or use a heavy spaghetti pot or a large deep skillet with a lid.  This is something I made up on the spur of the moment yesterday and if you don't have a crockpot, I would buy one as they do the work while you do other things.  If you are like me, you are busy and don't have time to stand at the stove when making a hearty and substantial meal for your loved ones.  I swear by mine and intend to put it into more use.

The ingredients you will need are as follows:

4 pieces of Eye of Round Steak, cut into bite size peices after trimming off any excess fat.
4 or 5 medium potatoes, scrubbed and cut into thick slices.
1/2 bag of the small carrots
1/4 of a green bell pepper, sliced into thin slices
1/2 of a large white onion, cut into good size peices and separated
Salt, Mrs. Dash (Garlic & Red Pepper), pepper and a dash of Rosemary
Worchestershire, to your liking
Steak Sauce, again to your liking.
1 can of Chili Tomatoes
1 can of tomato Sauce

Put all ingredients into pot and select the high heat setting, or if you are cooking on the stove, set on medium heat and stir occasionally to keep from sticking.  I cooked the porridge for 3 hours on high, and then one hour on low.  I served it with the following delicious bread recipe:

1 loaf of French bread cut in half horizontally, and then cut in half vertically.  If you have a large family, you can use the whole loaf.  Spread generously with butter or margarine and cover top of bread with plenty of the same Mrs. Dash you used for the porridge.  Turn oven on to 400 degrees and let warm up.  Place the bread in for about 12 minutes and remove from oven and slice.  Delicious dipped in the broth of the porridge.

Hope you find this dish to your liking.  It hasn't been declared summer yet, even though we are having warm weather, and this dish is good for a late supper served with a tossed salad of your liking.  Delicious! 
Bon Apetite'!
