[Mimosas for Mr and]

This was amazing! I used organic lean beef. I didn't have dry mustard, so subbed for 1/2 tsp reg. mustard. I also didn't have an egg on hand, so subbed for a bit of olive oil. I also added a bit of Worcestershire sauce (not sure how much, just eyeballed it). My only complaint is that I wanted seconds, and there were none!!! =) Thanks for posting this great recipe!

We enjoyed these. Although DH prefers his with bread instead of rolled oats. So plan to just make that change in the future. I love the flavor of the other ingredients and the ease in preparation. These are so cute. And makes the perfect amount for two people. I just served with some mashed potatoes and peas. Total comfort food at it's best. Thanks for posting. :)

Pretty good recipe, I love having the amounts to make it smaller, i had one for supper and the other i used for sandwiches for lunch the next day. For my personal tastes i would use a few more oats and ketchup instead of the water or pickle juice next time. Very handy recipe over all, thanks for posting!

You know, I came on here looking for something to do for dinner with a bit of ground beef that was NOT meatloaf. I found this ans the ingredingt list intriged me so much I had t6o try it. Let me tell you I love it. My mouth watered from the moment I opened the door to check on it. My DH and I are truly impressed and This has become my new recipe, (I have now changed a few quantities for our tastes) some of the ingredients even have made there way into my meatballs! Older recipes always seem to be the best huh?
