Hamburger Cobbler

"An easy casserole using things already on hand that generated "Wow! This is s-o-o-o good!" responses. My first reaction - keep it a "secret family recipe" Second reaction -Naah. The 'zaar has shared too many great recipes with me, so it's only decent I share back. Easy substitutions of ground chicken or turkey with chicken or turkey boullion. Experienced cooks will throw in bell peppers, olives or things I haven't heard of. Prepare as presented, or have your own fun."

  1. This was so much fun to make!! Very pretty and tasted very good, too!! I doubled the whole recipe except for the oil, used 1 tsp. minced garlic, one 8oz. pkg. sliced fresh mushrooms, and then added one can (drained) green beans. It didn't want to thicken quite enough, so I mixed another Tbl. cornstarch with another Tbl. cold water, and then it did just fine. I baked this in my deep cast iron skillet and it was perfectly done in the time specified. The "biscuits" on top were heavenly!! :) Perfectly done, and not soggy! :) Next time I make this, I might add just a little worcestershire sauce for extra flavor, but it was still very good just as is! Thanks for a wonderful and fun recipe to make!! Made for the Spring PAC 2009 game. :)
     
  2. Nice, quick, & easy. I added sweetcorn and chopped carrots to this instead of mushrooms, and added some italian herbs to the topping. Deffinately something to keep in my 'every day' cookbook. Thanks for posting this.
     
  3. This was fast & easy! The whole family loved it. Definitely a keeper!
     
  4. it looks so good
     
  5. We all loved this. I used a full pound of hamburg to feed our family of four, and I had to substitute one can of mushrooms since I didn't have fresh, and chicken broth instead of beef broth [same reason]. It was easy to make, and I'll definitely make it again...a double batch, since everyone wanted seconds !

  2. This was a simple and tasty dinner. I left out the mushrooms because my husband is allergic, and I used flour instead of cornstarch. Turned out great and the whole family enjoyed it. Thanks for the recipe!
