French Onion Burgers

Tips

• Skip the buns and try serving these in a bowl, on top of hot mashed potatoes!

Step 1

Season the beef with salt and pepper.  Shape the beef into 4 (1/2-inch-thick) burgers.

Step 2

Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook until well browned on both sides (to prevent sticking- make sure the skillet is hot before adding the beef). Remove the burgers from the skillet.  Pour off any fat.

Step 3

Stir the soup in the skillet and heat to a boil. Return the burgers to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the burgers are done. Top the burgers with the cheese and cook until the cheese is melted. Serve the burgers on the buns with the soup mixture for dipping.
