I usually use a southern smothered onion gravy for a cube steak recipe, but I was in the mood for red sauce.
I had one bunch of baby beets from Half Pint Farm - to make it healthy:)
Two medium red onions, sliced - and I found a banana pepper to slice up as well.
One pound (4 pieces) of cube steak from the freezer, still partially frozen, but that doesn't matter because I am going to be lazy with this preparation.
(These beets are so pretty!)
Simmer on low for about an hour and a half, covered, until the beets are done and the sauce reduced.

I sauteed the veggies for a few minutes, until the onions became soft. I'm missing a photo of the step where I add the meat on top, along with one jar of pureed tomatoes and Italian spices.

There's a serving of cube steak and some awesome beets underneath all that shredded mozzarella. The cube steak was probably cut from the top round, because it was a little too dry; if I were to repeat this one-pot dish I would probably use ground beef (or even ground pork). This recipe made 4 servings.
