Ingredients
  • 1 can Tomato sauce (8oz)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon Garlic salt
  • 2/3 cup Bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 1 teaspoon Parsley flakes
  • 1/4 cup Onion flakes
  • 1.5 lb Ground beef
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 10 slices Mozzarella cheese
Directions
  1. 1
    In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, stir, then microwave on medium for 5 minutes, stirring once. Set aside.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, combine 1/3 cup of the bread crumbs, ground beef, and onion flakes. Add one whole egg and mix until just combined.
  3. 3
    Divide the beef mixture into six equal portions and form into patties.
  4. 4
    In a shallow dish, mix the remaining 1/3 cup bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and parsley flakes.
  5. 5
    Beat the second egg in a separate shallow dish. Dip each beef patty into the beaten egg, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll in the breadcrumb mixture.
  6. 6
    Place the coated patties in a single layer in a baking dish (such as a 12x18 inch rectangular dish or a 10-inch square casserole).
  7. 7
    Bake in a preheated oven at 375F (190C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
  8. 8
    Pour the prepared tomato sauce over the baked patties. Top each patty with mozzarella slices and sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese if desired.
  9. 9
    Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the sauce is hot. Serve immediately.

Note

Original Recipe Method: The original recipe called for microwaving the patties on medium-high for 9-14 minutes, re-arranging them halfway through, then microwaving with cheese for 2-5 minutes. Baking is generally recommended for better texture and browning.

Ingredient Substitutions: You can use panko breadcrumbs for a crispier coating. If you prefer a richer sauce, substitute the canned tomato sauce with marinara sauce.

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.

Safety: Ensure the ground beef reaches an internal temperature of 160F (71C) before serving.
