I grew up on Hamburger Helper and box meals. Ok, I had a bit of half and half it depended on which parents house I stayed at. So I think that’s why I just love semi-homemade recipes. That being said, today’s recipe that I’m going to share with you is a completely home made recipe.

I love it. I grew up on Hamburger Helper too. My wife just gives me one of those strange looks when I say Mmmmmm as I’m looking at the Hamburger Helper boxes at the grocery store.
Great idea!
Thanks for this-will be making tonight!!
This is one I also make. We make homemade versions of Hamburger Helper all the time!
This sounds like a great recipe. I love recipes instead of boxed versions. Thanks for sharing
