I did the Salisbury Steaks tonight with some ground Ira. YUM! Thanks for sharing that recipe OF it was awesome.

I love stuff like that. I am glad you are being so successful in your sneak nutrition attacks. Just because it is good for you doesn't mean it can't taste great, but you can't convince them of that.

I had to find a homemade version cause it wouldn't be cost effective to have to buy about 5 or 6 store bought per meal. Last night I made a double batch with 12 patties and it was almost too much, but the dogs got some too, just no gravy....and that's ok cause I usually give them something for their supper snack.
Usually about 2 slices of bread is just about right. I didn't have any bread crumbs or dried stale bread, so I popped 2 slices in the toaster on light, turned em & popped em again, then run in the blender to crumb. Perfect for one batch. The patties were about big enough for a regular hamburger and could have easily been made smaller around and thinner to stretch it out for about 8 or so patties and still be filling enough for everyone.
If I had known how easy these were to make and how good they are, I would have been making them all along.

These are also very easy to sneak in some of those healthy nutritional boosters that nobody knows about

I will definitely have to try this one. We save the nasty heels from our GF bread a lot of the time to make bread crumbs from and have found an onion soup mix even that is GF. Salisbury steaks were always one of my favorites.

Sounds yummy!

For years I would buy the premade, frozen packages. The boys loved them and could eat a whole package each. Then Ii did some searching for a homemade version. I think I settled on one from AllRecipes, but did a bit of tweaking and this is what I came up with. It's truly a family favorite, even hubs likes it.


Salisbury Steaks with Mushroom Onion Gravy


1lb burger
1pkg dry onion soup
1 qt beef bone broth
1/2lb sliced mushrooms
2 eggs
1/2 C bread crumbs
1 or 2 T butter
1/2 - 1 tsp Worchestershire sauce
3 or 4 T flour
salt & pepper

Mix onion soup mix with broth & set aside. Mix burger, bread crumbs, eggs, salt, pepper and about 1/3 C soup. Shape into patties. In large skillet cook patties till done & browned on both sides. Transfer to a plate. In skillet drippings add butter and mushrooms & stir to cook a bit. Add flour & Worchestershire sauce to remaining soup mix & stir to get rid of lumps. Add to the mushrooms in the skillet & heat till thickened & bubbly. Add back the burger patties & cook a few minutes more.


This should make about 6 good sized patties, depending on how big or small you make them. Hubs & I ate one each and the boys had 2 each and we're all stuffed.


......oops, This recipe is written correctly, but I keep putting the Worchestershire sauce in the burger instead of the gravy....either way, it's still delish
