3 lbs. ground chuck
3 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
4 stale hamburger buns, crumbled
2 eggs
1 grated potato
1 sm. chopped onion
2 grated celery
2 grated carrots

Mix all ingredients together. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes then at 350 degrees for 2 hours. Last 15 minutes top with ketchup or tomato soup. This is a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables. If you're in a hurry, shape mixture into hamburger patties - sear in a skillet then cook in the oven 1 hour at 350 degrees. Cook covered in BBQ sauce for a great treat.
