SWISS STEAK AND DUMPLINGS BAKE

Swiss Steak and Dumplings Bake image

One of my favorite beef dishes, I make this one very often at my house. Although the recipe calls for steak, you can use any cut of beef that you prefer, I sometimes cut up a small roast for this. I have even added 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese to the cream mixture.
