Hamburger " Steaks" With Onion Gravy

Submitted by nsomniak6

"Came up with this after trying to figure out what to do with some ground beef that needed to be cooked. I paired this with orzo, but would be equally good with mashed potatoes."

This was so good! The Lipton onion soup mix packets really add some extra flavor to both the meat and gravy. I did add some breadcrumbs to the meat mixture to help bind the patties. The gravy was excellent over mashed potatoes as well. This will be our new go-to hamburger steak recipe.

This had a great flavor to it. I only used one packet of onion soup mix and had added it to the gravy. I did add 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder to the burger mixture. I followed the rest of the recipe as written but next time I would cut back on the pepper by half as I thought it was a bit overpowering.

Excellant! I made the recipe as directed letting the onions brown a little. We loved the onion gravy.

This takes regular hamburger steaks to a whole new dimension! These are fabulous! Served with mashed taters and corn...HINT! only had one package of onion soup mix. Used it for the gravy portion and used dried onion, beef boulion cube mashed up, little bit of sugar ( as called for in the copycat recipie). Also didn't have beef broth, so I used 3 cups warm water crushed a beef cube and added the onion soup mix...yummmm

My Mom used to make a similar version of this. But don't tell her, this one is way better! I have served it over white rice, and mashed potatoes, both were excellent!
