Slow Cooker Pepper Steak

This is a recipe that my mom has made for a long time. It is very delicious, savory, and all-around tasty. It's simple to make, too, because the crock pot makes your life easy :)

Ingredients:
1-1/2 to 2 pounds beef top round steak
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
Few dashes Worchestershire sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
4 tomatoes, cut into eighths or 1 can (16 ounces) diced tomatoes with liquid
2 large green bell peppers, cut into strips
1/2 cup cold water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Cooked egg noodles (I use the No-Yolk, more healthy kind)

Directions:
Brown beef in oil in a skillet. Transfer to a 3-quart slow cooker. Combine the next 8 ingredients; pour over beef. Cover and cook on low 5-6 hours or until meat is tender. Add tomatoes and green peppers; cook on low 1 more hour. Combine the cold water and cornstarch to make a paste. Stir into liquid in slow cooker and cook on high until thickened. Serve over the egg noodles.
