Pour cream of mushroom soup over raw hamburger patties, alongside 3 simple ingredients, into slow cooker for a budget-friendly dinner that disappears

Here’s a budget-friendly slow cooker dinner that’s rich, filling, and always disappears fast:

🍄 Creamy Mushroom Hamburger Patties (Slow Cooker)

🛒 Ingredients (4 simple add-ins)

• 1½–2 lbs raw hamburger patties (4–6 patties)
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 packet onion soup mix
• ½ cup milk (or water for extra budget-friendly)
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional but recommended for extra flavor)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Layer the patties in the bottom of your slow cooker (you can stack slightly).
2. In a bowl, mix:
   • Cream of mushroom soup
   • Onion soup mix
   • Milk
3. Pour the mixture evenly over the patties.
4. Add sliced mushrooms on top.
5. Cover and cook:
   • Low: 6–7 hours
   • High: 3–4 hours

The patties will become tender and soak up all that savory gravy.

🍽️ Serve With

• Mashed potatoes (best option for soaking up gravy)
• Egg noodles
• White rice
• Or sandwich-style on toasted bread

💡 Budget Tip

Use frozen patties straight from the freezer—just add about 30–60 minutes to cooking time.

If you’d like, I can also give you a 4-ingredient even cheaper version or a dump-and-go version with potatoes included.
