Crockpot Swiss Steaks - My Mom's Recipe

My mom made this in a pressure cooker (that would have to be the devil of all kitchen appliances).  This is my transformed version for the crock pot. Mom always served it with spaetzle and red cabbage, I followed her example....  
To make this dish you will need:

1 can (14 ounce) petite diced tomatoes (double this if you like a lot of sauce)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
4 carrots, peeled and sliced (I used baby carrots)
1 large yellow onion, sliced in half moons
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 1/2 pounds round steaks
sea salt and fresh black pepper
flour

1.)  Mix tomatoes, Worcestershire, peppers, garlic and thyme together in crock pot and season well with salt and pepper. Add the carrots and onion.

2.)Season each side of the steaks with salt and pepper and prick with a fork all over about an inch apart. Add to crock pot. Cook on high 4-5 hours or low 7-8. Yup, it's that easy.
