You know.... you can buy big things of seasoning and pasta for a lot less.
But whatever -- go ahead and waste your money.

$2 a pop??



regarding my original post, the directions call for 1 pound of ground beef, but i cannot remember the last time i did not put 2 pounds of meat in the mix... #=lb=pound if that was confusing? idk my bff jill

3/31/2009 6:03:59 PM

I usually get 1.5lbs instead of the recommended 1lb

3/31/2009 6:05:49 PM

i would do 2 lbs, but my skillet aint big enough

3/31/2009 6:06:38 PM

CHEESY HASHBROWNS

beef pasta>>>stroganoff>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.rest

3/31/2009 6:09:04 PM

The most tender meat.

3/31/2009 6:09:15 PM

Never had it. It sounds horrible.

And, I no longer eat pasta, except for when I get a craving for macaroni and cheese. Even then, I make a rue and add cheese. I don't do boxed.

3/31/2009 6:10:42 PM

i was curious so i checked out the official website.

the product is shit

3/31/2009 6:14:18 PM

I think he just noticed he's using 2 pound "packages" of meat instead of 1... by accident?

3/31/2009 6:15:53 PM

there is chicken and tuna helper too

^^ and ^^^ don't knock it til you try it (srsly ...i would hate a lot of foods right now if it werent for that! )

3/31/2009 6:18:22 PM

Asian Helper
LOL

3/31/2009 6:19:43 PM

Are you really going to try and defend boxed artificial food to two people who really push fresh foods?

3/31/2009 6:21:00 PM

yes i am.

im not claiming its healthy, at all.

im claiming it tastes good.

3/31/2009 6:21:28 PM

$1.50 a box and having it made it 30 min is great

3/31/2009 6:22:11 PM

I'd bet money that you can taste the artificialness.

mozzarella cheese
halloumi cheese

tomatoes
onions

Beef Pasta >= Bacon Cheeseburger > Stroganoff.

I always just use 1lb. of 80/20 from HT.

[Edited on March 31, 2009 at 6:31 PM. Reason : <3 when HH is 10 for 10 @ Grub Cub.]

3/31/2009 6:29:48 PM

Joie, a roux is a sauce.

I grow and raise all my own food. In addition, everything I make is from scratch. I only spend money on water, seeds and livestock feed. HAHA ALL YOU FAT LOSERS WASTING MONEY ON HAMBURGER HELPER

3/31/2009 7:15:43 PM

my wife's favorite is stroganoff. We add a huge can of cream of mushroom to give it extra sauce (she doesn't like mushrooms but loves this addition. I do like the other HH flavors, but stroganoff's the only one she'll try

[Edited on March 31, 2009 at 7:50 PM. Reason : yes double the meat.. everytime]

3/31/2009 7:46:57 PM
