Rather than use an actual gravy I took a shot cut by using home canned plain spaghetti sauce. I served the patties on a bed of sautéed cabbage. This made for a tasty, quick, filling yet frugal entrée that took less than 15 minutes to prepare.

Salisbury Steak
Salisbury steak is minced beef formed into an elongated patty to resemble a steak. Like meatloaf it may contain other ingredients like bread crumbs as an extender but in order to be labeled as salisbury steak the mixture must contain a minimum of 65% meat. Of that 25% can be pork. The patties are usually served with gravy and mashed potatoes. The meal is a popular commercially prepared frozen TV dinner.
Salisbury steaks can be bought pre-made usually in the freezer section but some butcher shops make them as well. The patties can easily be made at home as well. I used pre-formed salisbury steak patties purchased from a local butcher shop as part of the boxed meats bought to support a school fundraiser.
