Ingredients:

INGREDIENTS QUANTITIES
Lean ground beef 1 pound
Cream cheese 6 ounces
Eggs 3
Sliced mushrooms 5 cups
Butter 2 tablespoons
Dried parsley 1 teaspoon
Salt and pepper To taste
Grated cheese (optional) As desired

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a casserole dish to ensure the casserole doesn’t stick.
  2. Cook Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook 1 pound of lean ground beef until it browns. Season the beef with salt and pepper to add flavor. Once browned, set it aside.
  3. Prepare Creamy Mixture: Using a food processor, blend 6 ounces of cream cheese. Add 3 eggs one at a time, blending until a smooth mixture forms. Pour this creamy blend over the cooked ground beef and stir thoroughly to combine.
  4. Transfer to Casserole Dish: Place the ground beef and cream cheese mixture into the greased casserole dish, spreading it evenly.
  5. Sauté Mushrooms: In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 5 cups of sliced mushrooms and cook until they soften and turn golden brown. Optionally, add garlic for extra flavor. Sprinkle the mushrooms with salt, dried parsley, and black pepper.
  6. Top with Mushrooms: Arrange the sautéed mushrooms on top of the hamburger and cream cheese mixture in the casserole dish. Optionally, add grated cheese on top for an extra cheesy touch.
  7. Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20 to 25 minutes or until it sets. Be cautious not to overcook; the goal is a golden-brown perfection.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Once baked to perfection, remove the Hamburger Mushroom Bake from the oven. Allow it to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this delightful dish with family and friends!
