Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine ground beef, Bisquick mix, chopped green pepper, egg, minced garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl.
- Shape the mixture into patties and place them in a greased shallow baking dish.
- Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle each patty with Parmesan cheese before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, consider adding finely chopped onions or substituting the green pepper with diced mushrooms. If you want a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce to the mixture. For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free baking mix instead of Bisquick. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ground beef from other dishes like Chunky Beef-Fritters.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Beef Patties Parmesan with a side of spaghetti and marinara sauce or alongside a fresh green salad for a balanced meal. They're also delicious in a sandwich with crusty bread and your favorite condiments. For a heartier option, pair them with Pennsylvania Dutch Cabbage Rolls for a satisfying dinner plate.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. Alternatively, you can microwave them for a quicker option, but they may lose some texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze the beef patties before baking?
Yes, you can freeze the patties before baking. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. They can be stored for up to 3 months. When ready to cook, bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
What can I use instead of tomato juice?
If you don't have tomato juice, you can substitute it with tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes mixed with a little water. Alternatively, a splash of V8 juice can also work well, adding a unique flavor to the patties.
How can I make these patties more flavorful?
To enhance the flavor, consider adding grated Parmesan cheese directly into the beef mixture or incorporating fresh herbs like basil or parsley. You can also experiment with different seasonings or marinades prior to cooking for a unique twist on this dish.
