Pepper Strip Steak

"This recipe uses simple/inexpensive ingredients that you are sure to have around the house. I grew up eating this and consider it true comfort food! I found the recipe in an old cookbook of my mothers called "Second Helping, Please", though I've adapted it slightly to suit my preferences. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do and don't let the ketchup scare you!!! This is really quite tasty."

  1. Great! I wanted 'steak' for the family tonight without wanting to spring for a more expensive cut. So I bought a couple lbs of top blade steaks without knowing what to do with them. This was the answer! Had no idea what I was doing but I served it with mashed potatoes (and rolls) and it worked out great. The kids are borderline on stuff with onions and peppers but once they tried it, 4 of the 5 had no complaints at all, the last worked around them and filled up on the steak. Great and easy! Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. Wow! I love pepper steak, but haven't ever made it with ketchup before. You better believe I'm gonna start, though, 'cos this was delicious! I was in a pinch, so I used frozen onions and bell peppers to save time, and didn't have any mushrooms on hand (which i will try for the next time). Second helpings were very difficult to resist! Thanks, PennyG...can't wait to make this again!
     
  3. This was a really good meal for us. I skipped the mushrooms as I don't eat them and added some sliced red bell pepper instead. Came out great. Thanks PennyG for another great recipe. Made for FALL 2008 PAC.

Married on Jan 21st, 2005... love to cook and bake though fairly new at cooking for other people. My mother passed away with all her "famous" recipes in her head, so I love this site to ensure great recipes are passed down. I actually use this site daily now!!! My hobbies are cooking, reading, whale watching(my husband's business) and I'm trying to get back into exercising AGAIN... I love to travel, though I don't really do enough of it to classify as a hobby (I wish)...lol <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
