8 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup finely shredded parmesan cheese
1 egg
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Beef Patties:
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, 1/4 cup cream of mushroom soup, parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, 2 tablespoons of diced onions, and a dash of pepper. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.
Shape the mixture into 6-8 thin patties and brown them in a skillet with a little oil.
2. Layer Ingredients in the Slow Cooker:
Grease your slow cooker and spread the sliced mushrooms and remaining diced onions evenly at the bottom.
Place the browned beef patties over the mushrooms and onions.
3. Make the Mushroom Sauce:
In a small bowl, mix the remaining cream of mushroom soup with 2-3 tablespoons of water to create a pourable sauce. Pour the sauce over the patties.
4. Cook to Perfection:
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 3-4 hours. Ensure the patties reach an internal temperature of at least 160°F for safe consumption.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
Serve these juicy, flavorful beef patties over a comforting side dish like creamy mashed potatoes or buttery egg noodles.
