Ingredients:

• 6 cube steaks
• 1 medium onion, peeled and sliced into rings
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1 can cream of celery soup
• 1 packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix
• 1/2 soup can of water
• Salt and pepper

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Onions:

• Peel and slice the onion into rings. Separate the rings for layering.

1. Season the Steaks:

• Salt and pepper each cube steak to taste.

1. Layer the Ingredients:

• Place 2 cube steaks in the bottom of your crock-pot.
• Top the steaks with a layer of onion rings.
• Repeat this process, layering the remaining cube steaks and onions. This layering helps keep the steaks separate and prevents them from merging into one mass.

1. Prepare the Sauce:

• In a separate bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and 1/2 can of water until well combined.
• Pour the soup mixture evenly over the layered steaks and onions in the crock-pot.

1. Add the Seasoning:

• Sprinkle the Lipton Onion Soup Mix over the top of the soup mixture.

1. Cook the Steaks:

• Cover the crock-pot with the lid and set it to low heat.
• Let the cube steaks cook for 6-7 hours. Your kitchen will fill with a delicious aroma as the meal slowly cooks.

1. Serve:

• Once the cooking time is complete, serve the tender cube steaks with a side of mashed potatoes to enjoy the savory gravy.
• Add a salad or a green vegetable to complete the meal.

Tips:

• Soup Variations: If you prefer, you can substitute the cream of celery soup with cream of mushroom soup for a different flavor profile.
• Serving Suggestions: This dish pairs excellently with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles to soak up the delicious gravy.
• Extra Vegetables: You can add sliced mushrooms or bell peppers to the layers for added texture and flavor.
• Thickening the Gravy: If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can mix a little cornstarch with water and stir it into the sauce in the last hour of cooking.
