  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 to 2 Tablespoons Onion Soup Mix

  • 1 t pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 to 2 Tablespoons Onion Soup Mix
  • slice cheese
  • 1 t pepper

Instructions

Mix together egg, ground beef, and soup mix (I do it in the KitchenAid).

Lightly pat 1/2 of meat into an 8-inch oven proof skillet.

Arrange cheese slices over meat and top with remaining , patting to make a smooth surface.

Sprinkle with pepper and cut into quarters.

Cook over medium to medium-high heat until bottom layer is nicely browned.

Put skillet in oven and broil until top is browned and burger is cooked all the way through.

Serve right away.

Notes

A very quick, really yummy cheeseburger to make indoors in the winter when it's too cold to grill. Everyone really liked this and it really hits the spot when we're all so ready for warm weather to arrive and for grilling season to begin!

I use this Homemade Onion Soup Mix recipe in the burger mixture. I also don't have an oven proof skillet, so I used a regular stovetop skillet for the first part of the cooking and slid the whole thing into a casserole dish for the broiling part.

You can make it a little fancier by sauteing 1/4 cup minced onion and a couple minced garlic cloves and adding it to the ground beef with the rest of the ingredients. For a larger family doubling the ingredients and using a larger skillet would probably work just fine.
