Steak with Mushrooms and Onions

Steak with Mushrooms and Onions (2 Points )

This dish is so low in points and SO good. My husband even called me to tell me that the leftovers he took for lunch the next day were even better than the night before. If you want to live dangerously, throw it on a bun and melt some cheese on top of it for a steak sandwich. While you are at it, throw in some green peppers.

*Update* I tried it in the crock pot.  I cooked the meat on low for about 8-9 hours and threw in the onions, mushrooms and peppers for the last hour or two.  It was delish!

Ingredients:
1/2 lb thin cut beef round sandwich steaks
1/2 large onion, sliced into rings
1/2 tsp olive oil
8 oz sliced mushrooms (I generally use canned because I am lazy)
4 seconds cooking spray
garlic powder to taste
salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste


Directions:
Slice beef into thin strips. Season with salt, garlic powder and fresh pepper to taste. Heat a large skillet over high heat. When the skillet is very hot, spray with cooking spray and add half of the beef. Cook until cooked through, turn and repeat for the other side. Set aside in a large dish. Spray the skillet again and when it gets hot add the remaining steak. Add remaining steak to the dish. Return skillet to heat and spray once again with cooking spray; add onions, mushrooms (and peppers) and season with salt and pepper and cook until golden on low heat.
Add steak to dish with vegetables and simmer on low for several minutes.
Serve over rice, or with oven baked fries for extra points.
