French Onion Burgers

This is something I've been making for a long time and its so yummy to turn an ordinary burger into something special.  Remember if you don't like onions...probably not a good idea to try this one :-)

Ingredients:

• 1lb of 95% lean ground beef (I only use lean since I'm grossed out by meat fat)
• 1 packet of french onion soup mix
• American Cheese

Directions:

Preheat grill.

Mix together meat and soup mix. 

Shape into hamburgers.

Grill until done to your liking.  I put cheese on it.  You know whats funny is that my husband hates these burgers since he doesn't like onion so I have to make the cheese into a different pattern on the top so he knows these are the "poison" burgers.  That's why the cheese is criss crossed on the pictures.

Slow Cooker French Onion Meatballs

The final recipe from Father's Day weekend was the meatballs.  This was so easy and so good.  Anything in a crock pot or slow cooker is the best because I can throw it in without a lot of fuss.

I got the recipe from the Six Sisters Blog Site ... link is here.

But again the picture sucks.

Ingredients:
1 (24 oz) package of frozen meatballs (I bought Italian style, but plain are fine too)
2 (10.5 oz) cans of condensed French onion soup

Directions:
Spray your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Dump in the package of meatballs and dump the soup on top. Cook on LOW for 4 hours OR on HIGH for 2 hours.
