Salisbury Steak Casserole


There is something comforting about the phrase Salisbury Steak. I have always related this term to comfort food.

Salisbury Steak Casserole is an easy to make, down to earth, good home cooking meal that so far just about everyone I’ve met likes.


Salisbury Steak Casserole


This Salisbury Steak Casserole recipe is a bit unique in the sense that it’s not a true Salisbury Steak and it’s entire creation was an accident. I was originally trying to make real from scratch Salisbury Steaks.

However I got distracted and added my ingredients in the wrong order and then said…what the heck, let’s see where this creation goes.

Ingredients
  • 2 - 3 cups pre-made mashed potatoes - leftovers work great!
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can of french onion soup
  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1/8 teaspoon black ground pepper
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup (or cream of chicken if you don't like mushrooms)
  • 1 packet of dry onion soup mix
  • 2 Tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder
  • sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can of french cut green beans, drained
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350*F
  2. If mashed potatoes are not already prepared, prepare now.
  3. In a deep skillet, combine 1/3 can of french onion soup, ground beef & pepper. Cook until meat is cooked through.
  4. While ground beef is cooking, in a small bowl combine remaining french onion soup, cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix, and flour until well combined and flour isn't lumpy.
  5. Add to soup mixture ketchup, water, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder and mushrooms. Mix well.
  6. If you have a heavy duty skillet that can go in the oven (no plastic handles) then you can just layer everything it your skillet and bake it. If you do not, or are not comfortable baking with your skillet, then a 9 x 13 pan would work too! If you are doing the 9 x 13 pan, transfer meat mixture into pan now.
  7. Pour soup mixture over ground beef.
