Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds ground chuck (80 percent meat, 20 percent fat)
1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons red onion pulp (grate an onion on a rasp grater or the small side of a box grater)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 strips bacon
2 cups beef stock
2 cups heavy cream
5 to 6 slices yellow American cheese (4 ounces)
One 12-ounce bag egg noodles
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • For the Salisbury steaks: In a large bowl, add the chuck, breadcrumbs, mustard, ketchup, onion pulp, salt and a few hefty grinds of black pepper and gently mix to combine. Divide into fourths and make four 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick oval burgers; set aside.
  • In a large pan with straight sides on medium heat, add the bacon and cook until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the bacon fat in the pan. Cool the bacon, then chop.
  • In the same pan, turn the heat to high and add the formed burgers. Sear on one side for a few minutes, then remove to a plate.
  • For the sauce: In the same pan, add the beef stock and scrape up any bits. Add the heavy cream and American cheese and stir. Bring to a boil. Stir in the noodles. Nestle the burgers into the noodles and sauce, cover, lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the burgers are done and the noodles are cooked, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley and bacon.
  • Serve family style or place a burger on a plate with noodles and serve topped with sauce.

SUNNY'S BACON, EGG AND CHEESE SLIDER CASSEROLE



Sunny's Bacon, Egg and Cheese Slider Casserole image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 16 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 savory or sweet dinner rolls, attached at the hip! (I like Hawaiian's here)
Cooking spray (optional)
10 strips cooked bacon, chopped
1/4 cup habanero nacho cheese sauce (I like Mrs. Renfro's Ghost Pepper Nacho Cheese Sauce here)
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar and pepper jack blend (regular Monterey Jack is fine), then chopped
12 medium eggs
4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Hot sauce, to serve (I like Texas Pete or chipotle flavored Tabasco here)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the rolls: Place the rolls on a nonstick-foil-lined baking sheet or in a baking dish with the sides and bottom coated with cooking spray. With a serrated paring knife, carve out a wide circle on the top of each, cutting down and leaving about 1/2-inch of bread at the bottom. (You need to keep the bottom sturdy, so you don't want to cut all the way to the bottom.) Get your fingers in there and pull out the plug of bread. Press down the bottom with your fingers, leaving room for your filling.
  • For the filling: Evenly divide the bacon into the recesses in the bread. In a medium bowl, mix the nacho cheese sauce with the Cheddar-jack blend. Divide evenly and spoon or pipe into each recess above the bacon. Crack an egg into each cavity.
  • For the topping: Brush the tops of the rolls with the butter, then sprinkle with the everything bagel seasoning and Parmesan.
  • Bake until the eggs are done and the rolls are golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then cut apart and serve with a shake of hot sauce.

SUNNY'S BACON CHEESEBURGER CASSEROLE RECIPE



Sunny's Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole Recipe image

Provided by Emcneil

Number Of Ingredients 25

Beef:
8 strips bacon, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 pounds ground chuck (80 percent beef, 20 percent fat)
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons Mexican oregano
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Sauce:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
1 pint (2 cups) heavy cream, at room temperature
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
Kosher salt
Casserole:
2 pounds frozen cheese ravioli, thawed
8 slices Swiss cheese
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
8 slices American cheese
8 ounces shredded Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese blend
1 head iceberg lettuce, finely shredded (like straw)
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion (like paper thin!)
2 tablespoons pickle juice

Steps:

  • For the beef: In a large pan with straight sides on medium-high heat, add the bacon and cook, while stirring, until crisp. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Leave the bacon fat in the pan and add the olive oil, beef, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper. Brown the beef while breaking it up into bits, about 10 minutes. Remove the beef with a slotted spoon to a plate and reserve. Leave the fat in the pan for the sauce. For the sauce: Add the butter and flour to the already-hot pan from the beef. If the butter begins to brown, lower the heat while working it into the flour. Cook, stirring, for a few minutes, then raise the heat and slowly whisk in the milk. Once it begins to thicken slightly, add the heavy cream and continue to cook until the sauce reduces a bit more and thickens as well. Add the mustard. The sauce will not be thick like gravy, but not as thin as water either. Taste and season with a pinch of salt. For the casserole: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using a 13-by-9-inch casserole dish, layer starting at the bottom with: a few spoonfuls of sauce to cover the bottom, half of the ravioli in 1 layer, the Swiss cheese, half of the beef, half of the tomatoes, half of the remaining sauce, the remaining ravioli in 1 layer, the American cheese, the remaining beef, the remaining tomatoes, the remaining sauce and the reserved bacon. Top with all of the shredded cheese blend. Bake until the edges are bubbly and the cheese begins to brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Toss the lettuce and onion in a large bowl with the pickle juice. Serve each portion of casserole with a mound of this garnish over the top.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef for a more flavorful casserole.
  • If you don't have bacon on hand, you can substitute cooked sausage or ground beef.
  • Use a variety of cheeses for a more complex flavor. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good choices.
  • Don't overcook the casserole, or the meat will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the casserole with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Sunny's Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this casserole a try.
