Swiss Steak in Slow Cooker

I was looking for bargains in the the meat department of my grocery store when I saw a pack of cube steak.  I immediately thought about preparing in the crock-pot.  The next day I took 20 minutes to prep the Swiss Steak after breakfast.  Then I let it cook all morning long while I spent it lounging around playing with my kids. Fifteen minutes before the Swiss steak was ready I cooked some pasta  and lunch was served.  This was so good that my husband asked for 2nds for dinner.  I love when that happens.  This was a bargain at the grocery store that turned out to not only save money on my wallet, but bought me some extra time with my family too.
