Hearty Mushroom Salisbury Steak Chili

Blossom Lady

Nov 01, 2024 11:09 AM

Anyone else grow up on Salisbury Steak? I sure did. Salisbury Steak isn’t really a steak per say, but a hamburger patty. It’s made by combining ground beef with spices and is served with a brown gravy. There’s a lot of variations to the dish. Sometimes onions or mushrooms are paired with the gravy. The meat patties are typically formed with breadcrumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard. Canned French Onion Soup is a classic ingredient that’s also used. To me, it’s a super retro comfor...

Slow-Cooker Italian Chickpea Soup

Blossom Lady

Oct 31, 2024 08:49 AM

I loved soup growing up. I still do, and I think it’s so comforting and nostalgic for me because of my childhood. Soup was always my favorite — usually a large, deep pot that was simmering on a stove all afternoon. There were tons of veggies, fragrant herbs, and always beans or pasta (or both). They were hearty and rustic, topped with overly generous portions of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and served best with warm crusty bread, spread with butter. I defy anyone to tell me that soup is...
