    Servings 4 servings
    Calories 429

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 lb ground beef
    • ⅓ cup bread crumbs
    • 1 small onion, chopped
    • 1 egg, slightly beaten
    • 2 tablespoon water
    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • 2 cups brown gravy
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions

    • In a large bowl, mix the beef, bread crumbs, onion, egg, and water; shape into 4 patties, each about ½ inch thick.
    • In a large skillet, heat oil and add patties. Cook 5 minutes and turn over. Cook 5 more minutes until browned on both sides. Drain off any fat.
    • Add gravy and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook 10 minutes or until patties are cooked to desired doneness.

    Notes

    This recipe is a Campbell’s original and is a better alternative to frozen Salisbury steak options. The patties freeze well either raw or cooked. To freeze, scale the recipe as preferred, then freeze the patties individually on a cookie sheet for several hours. Once frozen, combine in a freezer container and label with date and the appropriate cooking instructions for raw or frozen.
    This recipe can be dressed up with sautéed onions and/or mushrooms—just sauté in butter and add to the pan with the brown gravy.

    Ingredients
      

    • 5 lbs. potatoes, cleaned and peeled (see note below)
    • 6 tablespoon butter, divided
    • ¼ cup skim milk, or more as needed
    • salt to taste
    • pepper to taste
    • paprika, for garnish

    Instructions

    • Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Boil until potatoes are fork tender; drain and return to pot.
    • Add 4 Tbsp. butter, salt, and pepper to pot and mix; adding enough milk while mixing to reach desired consistency.
    • Transfer mashed potatoes to a serving bowl, top with 2 Tbsp. butter, and garnish with paprika.

    Notes

    Russet potatoes are a good choice for mashed potatoes, but if you prefer to not peel your potatoes, Yukon Gold is perfect for mashing with the skin on.
    If you need to speed up the cooking process, try chopping your potatoes before boiling.

    Ingredients
      

    • ¾ cup lime juice
    • ½ cup oil
    • ½ cup Dijon mustard
    • ½ cup Worcestershire sauce
    • ½ cup soy sauce
    • ¼ cup green onions, chopped
    • ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped (or 1 ½ tablespoon dried basil)
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon pepper
    • 4 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions

    • Mix all ingredients except chicken together thoroughly in a small bowl. Reserve ¼ cup for basting and ¼ cup separately for serving; refrigerate.
    • Marinate chicken in remaining marinade overnight.
    • Grill over medium heat about 5 minutes, basting occasionally with reserved marinade.
    • Flip chicken and baste again. Continue to cook until juices run clear.
    • Divide chicken and serve ¼ for the meal and chop ¾ for the freezer.
    • Drizzle the marinade you reserved for dipping over the chicken you are serving, or just serve the marinade as a dipping sauce.

    Notes

    If your chicken breasts are thick, you may want to butterfly them by cutting them in half lengthwise like a filet, which allows for more even cooking.
    Serve one pound of chicken for dinner and chop the remaining chicken and divide into 3 portions to stock your freezer.
