grep without showing path/file:line

by

No need to find. If you are just looking for a pattern within a specific directory, this should suffice:

grep -hn FOO /your/path/*.bar

Where -h is the parameter to hide the filename, as from man grep:

-h, –no-filename

Suppress the prefixing of file names on output. This is the default
when there is only one file (or only standard input) to search.

Note that you were using

-H, –with-filename

Print the file name for each match. This is the default when there is
more than one file to search.
