Crockpot Swiss Steak #3

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Slow Cooker

A low sodium swiss steak still having good flavour. 800 mg sodium per serving

 "As an active sodium watcher, I subbed the beef bouillon for VLS (very low sodium) Beef Base from www.redibase.com. That one step knocks the sodium levels down to under 100 per serving without sacrificing a lot of flavor. Hope this helps some sodium watchers." - Peterd503

If you are on a low sodium diet like I am hunt for the no salt added canned tomatoes. I get them here in Canada at the superstore under the Unico brand. 15mg sodium for 1/2 cup. They appear to be whole plum tomatoes I pulsed them in the blender to chop them up.

I used the Bovril beef bouillon sachets which have 1000 mg sodium per package for 796 mg sodium per serving.

Notes

I modified the original big oven recipe to remove the salt and celery which is high in sodium and changed the tomatoes to no salt added tomatoes. Tasted it after a couple hours and increased the worchestershire sauce to what is shown and added the garlic. Nice dinner my wife gave it 4 stars.

    This was delicious! The only change I made was adding a couple of medium sliced carrots ... Yummy :-)

    We made this and it was well-liked by the whole family. I used a regular can of diced tomatoes and used balsamic vinegar in stead of wine vinegar, because that is what I had. The flavor was very good. Served with mashed potatoes.
