Simple Salisbury steak recipe

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

I admit — I love Salisbury steak, and I think I found the perfect recipe. Add mashed potatoes and a veggie, and you have perfect comfort food! (And I will admit, I used boxed potatoes and a canned green beans, but, hey, that makes it feel like the school cafeteria (and I’m pooped tonight).

But look — a simple Salisbury steak recipe for 4 (and economical/pantry friendly, too!):

    This does sound good. I forgot about salisbury steak. DH won’t eat mushrooms. Unless they’ve been minced into a casserole. This an adaptable recipe, though! Hmmmm.

    Like I said, it’s easy just to nix the mushrooms on top (though I love ‘em). I think you could sub in some sauteed onions instead. That would be good. I got a second, “Boy, this is good,” today when we had the leftovers for lunch.

    Mmm I love mushrooms.

    Have you ever tried those steam in the bag vegetables? I love them. I quit buying canned all together.

    Funny enough, I just had a coupon for the Green Giant ones (got ‘em for 50 cents). I bought the mixed veggies, because it comes in handy when you are doing a chicken casserole and such. Worked like a dream last week when I made the Chicken and Biscuits recipe I have posted here.
