Salisbury Steak and Mushroom Gravy
"I don’t know what it is about Salisbury Steak that I like so much. When I was pregnant with my oldest I craved it like it was the last best food on earth. I think it’s that “Anything smothered in gravy can’t be bad” mentality. It sure not a bad way to go in my book! But I am not a big fan of pre-packaged, pre-made foods so I had to come up with a recipe all my own. I used crushed Ritz crackers for my crumbs (they add an interesting flavor) but you can use whatever is on hand. I served it with Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes and Glazed Carrots. If you aren’t a fan of red wine or just don’t have any on hand you can substitute with more beef broth if you like...."
