Salisbury Steak with Onion Gravy

1 egg
1 can (10-1/2 ounces) condensed French onion soup,
undiluted, divided
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pinch pepper
1-1/2 pounds ground beef
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
6 cups hot cooked egg noodles
Chopped fresh parsley, optional

In a large bowl, beat the egg. Stir in 1/3 cup of soup, dry bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Crumble beef over mixture and mix gently. Shape into six oval patties. Brown in a skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside; discard drippings.

In the same skillet, combine flour and water until smooth; add ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and remaining soup; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes.

Return patties to skillet. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Serve patties and gravy over noodles. Garnish with parsley if desired. Yield: 6 servings.

Well I know here is Australia we have made up meals like Apricot chicken and Chicken Chow min but my partner loves Roast pork, Lasagne, Soups. Maybe stick to something like that - that he loves. Maybe Spaghetti Bolognaise or Lasagne and I use Mortadella and Egg for that special touch.

Here are several recipes to choose from.

Saturday Chicken

10 chicken pieces
(you dont have to use that many chicken pieces. Use how many pieces you want. the rest of the recipe stays the same.)
1 can condensed cream of mushroom (or cream of chicken)
1 cup of cream (dont cheat and use milk; the cream makes a lot of difference)(i have cheated and used milk lol, but the cream does make a difference)
salt, garlic powder, and paprika- to taste
chopped parsley
Season chicken with salt, garlic, and paprika. Next, spread it out, in one layer baking pan. Dilute the soup with the cream; pour it over the chicken, and sprinkle parsley on top.
Bake , uncovered, at 350' for 1 hour or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with fork.
Makes a delicious gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes or buttered noodles or rice.

Broccoli Chicken Casserole
2-3 boiled chicken breasts, diced into small chunks
(just boil the chicken for at least 10-15 minutes or until no longer pink)

1 can of cream of chicken
Pepperidge Farm Stuffing
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp. lemon juice

Boiled the broccoli for 5 minutes, then drain. I was too afraid to put uncooked broccoli in the casserole, (thought i would ruin it).
