Quick and Easy Hamburger Steak

This is another of those go to recipes for busy days. It's quick and simple to make and requires just a handful of ingredients. We prefer having the mushrooms and onions with the gravy but its easy to leave those out of your family does not like them. You can cook the hamburger any way you want. Sometimes we grill it, broil it, or fry it in the pan. You can also use packaged gravy mix if desired but I make my own.
