Martha's Notes:

This recipe is one my 100-year-old grandmother (granny to all) made often. It is not only economical, it is hearty and tasty.
It is easy to throw together and is made from items she almost always had on hand.

Directions

Mix together ground beef, potatoes, onion, green pepper, egg and salt. Shape into four patties.

Over medium heat, brown the patties in the oil; drain. Add tomato juice. Reduce heat; simmer 20 - 25 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Remove patties to a serving platter; keep warm.

Combine flour and water; gradually add to juice in skillet. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened - a few minutes. Spoon over patties, sprinkle with green onions, and serve.
