26 g (one packet) beef onion soup mix |

4. Spin around the kitchen singing you favourite Duran Duran hit from the 1980's
5. In a separate dish, combine beef onion soup mix, 1/2 cup water and 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
6. Ponder the lesser points of Dadaism
7. Place steak, or bits of steak or however you have chosen to divide the mosaic that is your meat over the mushrooms and onions

9. Cover and set crock pot on low for 8 hours
