Ingredients:

2 lbs beef top round steak
1 8oz can tomato sauce
2 tbsp onion soup mix
2 tbsp canola oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp ground oregano
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp pepper
8 medium potatoes

Directions: Cut steak into serving size pieces. Place in a slow cooker. In a large bowl, combine tomato sauce, soup mix, oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic powder and pepper. Pour over meat. Scrub and pierce potatoes and place over meat. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours until meat and potatoes are tender.

Remove the meat and potatoes; keep warm. For gravy, pour cooking juices into a small saucepan; skim fat.

Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with meat and potatoes. Serves 8.
