Judy's Simmer Steak (husband's favorite from mother-in-law)

1 to 2lbs diced round steak browned in 3tbs olive oil with 2 cloves minced garlic, medium chopped onion, with 1/2 tsp pepper (Alipne Seasoning is much tastier). In slow cooker combine 2 cans cream of mushroom garlic soup with 1/2 can water (add extra water to cooker to dilute gravy to desired consistency 30 minutes before serving). Add 1 1/2c sliced mushrooms. Add steak, cook on med-high till tender. Piece quilt while waiting (? 3-4 hours). Wonderful on riced potatoes (prepare ahead and reheat), with green beans. YUM! Enjoy both a wonderful day of quilting and hearty supper.
