Directions for Swiss steak
In a small bowl combine bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Place steak on a clean board or similar work/cutting surface. Sprinkle steak with about half of the bread crumb mixture and pound into the steak with a meat mallet. Repeat on other side of round steak then cut into 4 to 6 pieces.

In a large Dutch oven or large deep skillet over medium heat, melt butter or margarine. When hot, add steak; brown on both sides. Add tomatoes, onion, chopped celery, chopped green bell peppers, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 2 hours, or until Swiss steak is tender.
