Looking for a Easy Salisbury Steak Recipe?
This easy Salisbury Steak recipe is one of our favorites and reminds me of the classic TV dinner that I used to love as a kid, but this is completely homemade.
When I find myself with some free time on the weekend, I’ll make 2 or 3 of these homemade meals to put in the freezer so I can grab one when I just don’t have time to cook in the kitchen. The dish is so popular in my house that instead of groans that frozen meals can get, this one receives a big cheer (and even sometimes requested!).
Whenever I make it I always serve with creamy mashed potatoes, crockpot creamed corn and a green veggie, usually Brussels Sprouts or broccoli.

What Ingredients Do I Need?
- 1 10.5 oz can Condensed French Onion Soup
- 1 10.5 oz can Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1 egg – beaten
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup fresh mushrooms
The ingredients are simple and the steaks are easy to put together. You’ll only need 1.5 pounds of ground beef for this baked Salisbury Steak recipe but the family size packs of ground beef are usually a deal. I usually get the family pack and use the leftovers for more Salisbury Steak or individually freeze it in 1 pound bags for burgers, casseroles, etc.
How do I make Homemade Salisbury Steak?
In a medium sized bowl combine 1/4 cup of French Onion Soup, 1/4 cup of Cream of Mushroom Soup, ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, pepper and Worcestershire sauce.
Shape into 6 steak patties. Place in 13×9 casserole dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. For easy freezer meals I like to use foil pans (this one is “lasagna size”). You could also use a 13×9 casserole dish, but keep in mind if you only have 1 or 2 casserole dishes and you freeze them, you might run into some trouble if you need a fresh dish for dinner one night and realize all yours are in the freezer. For this reason I like to keep a few foil pans on hand (plus they are easy cleanup – no dishes!).
Once the steaks are baking for 30 minutes you can start making your delicious mushroom gravy. In a small bowl combine remaining soup, water, milk and mushrooms. Pour over steak patties. Bake for 10 more minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Look at how delicious this looks!
Tip: How to Freeze Salisbury Steak
If you want to make this Salisbury Steak to freeze for make ahead meals, here’s how. After it’s done cooking, allow to cool and then double wrap with aluminum foil on top. Then into the freezer it goes. Once ready to eat, thaw in refrigerator overnight. Remove foil on top and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
And just like that you have the easiest, most delicious Homemade Salisbury Steak that your family is going to love. Make sure to serve with mashed potatoes so you can add some creamy gravy on top of them too!
I hope you enjoy this Salisbury Steak for dinner!
