Instead of spending time pounding the steaks, purchase cube steaks. They are already tenderized by the butcher. Look for them in the meat section of the supermarket.

Short-Cut Green Beans
Early summer is the time to stock up on inexpensive fresh green beans. Boil or steam them for 1 minute, drain, then freeze in small plastic bags. Use in this recipe, adding 20 minutes of cooking time.
