Nice Beef and Tomato Recipe

1 flat piece of beef roast
1 pkg onion soup mix
1 can of tomato soup

Cut meat into chunks or strips.

Put on top of tomato and onion soup mixed together. You may add more liquid if desired.

Roast in slow oven for 2 hours or so and you have a nice beef dish with tomato gravy (a little Tobasco sauce on top is good, if that is to your liking.)
