    I grew up on hamburger helper in the 90s and early 2000s. My mom was a nurse and worked long hours. I learned how to make these boxed dinners in elementary school so my brothers and I would have a hot dinner after getting off the school bus.

    My mom, who was a home ec major in college, sniffed at the idea of Hamburger Helper, and said she didn't need the box to make those dishes. We had homemade versions of all of them. However, as a young bride, I (Education major) was happy to use them!

    When we expecting our 4th baby, we had to really tighten our already tight belt to save money. I couponed like a fiend and Hamburger Helper was always a staple in the Sunday paper and in our pantry. We like the Lasagna, cheesy mac and the chili may. I liked the tuna helper but no one else did. 🙄 I learned to make it from scratch in my big skillet on the stove top and discovered the Instant Pot version about 5 years ago. I have very fond memories of that box feeding our family. ❤

    I, too, really loved Hamburger Helper growing up. Earlier than Hamburger Helper was a failed but valiant try at a similar product, Wine 'n Dine. It came with a little bottle of cooking wine. Pundits think it failed because people thought the wine was supposed to be served with the meal--not in it. lol. Thanks for the recipe.

    I am the last of five children and my mom just seemed to get tired of cooking from scratch and started using the "Helper" boxes. There used to be a Tuna Helper that was a Tuna Pot Pie. It had a bottom crust, a filling and a topping. It was by far my favorite and I was so sad when they stopped making it!!

I just made some last night but home made not box, and my daughter will not touch it and she's 8! You would think she would love it but she's picky. Ground beef, shells, Velveeta cheese, onion powder, a little pickle relish, a little mayo, and a little mustard. Tastes just like a cheeseburger!!!

    My family's favorite HH was the lasagna one. It tasted so good with parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. Using HH allowed me to help my working mom with supper preparations when I was still a kid. In my teenage years, I made more scratch meals, but the HH lasagna meal was still part of our rotation. ~ Anastacia in Cleveland

    Our favorite, back in the day, was the Beef Noodle. They’ve changed it, I feel. It’s not the same deliciousness that it once was. Of course it’s very simple to put together with your own ingredients and give it your own homemade taste and flavor. I just think sometimes you need the shortcut from the “Helper”. It seems like many companies do the “new and improved”, but it never is better. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it. Right? Enjoy your videos Mindy Mom 😊
    We also liked the Cheesy Italian, but more recently when it was requested by one of my kiddos, we really didn’t love it. So this is a great recipe for me to use. Thank you!

    You gave the tip of grouping your ingredients per recipe amount. I cook and bake this way: move all my ingredients (bags of flour/sugar/canned items/seasonings) out on my kitchen island. As I proceed through the recipe and add each measured ingredient in, I move that item back to the kitchen counter as a way of ensuring I know it's been added. If I get distracted during a recipe, I can come back and not get confused. Especially important for baking as accuracy is crucial.

    Our favorite is the Philly Cheesesteak Pasta which I am attempting to make this month from scratch. I do make a version of the enchilada or taco rice which we like. I normally precook meat from another meal and set it aside to make it. I have never done it with chicken broth though. I do it with water or water with milk like you did the pasta one because they always seem to have milk in them. I often use it for enchilada filing or we serve with cheese melted on top. I never had it as a child but my husband liked it so I am working on making them from scratch. I just got an instant pot so love the recipe!! So excited to try!!

    We used to do HH a lot in the early days of our marriage, my husband still can't cook much besides the helpers, but I definitely expanded what I could make without a box. My favorite is Salisbury, his favorite were the rice Mexican ones, but I cannot cook those (rice is the one thing that I cannot cook without burning) so he has learned to like the taco pasta, lol. I keep precooked neutral seasoned ground meat and onions in the freezer (I mix Ground Turkey and ground beef or ground sausage and either turkey or beef so we can quickly throw together a one dish pasta meal but usually it's lazy lasagna or something similar since I save the box mixes for when he has to cook.

    Wow, the memories... My mom was a fan of the beef stroganoff. Mine was the Italian lasagna. Has an adult and mother my children enjoyed the beef mac n cheese. My daughter has duped that one and it's yummy. Ive learned to dupe them myself and love doing it in the IP. (For the beef stroganoff, I've dupe this by using a box or 2 of the prepackaged stroganoff potatoes, adding sour cream, milk, cream cheese, spices, and hamburger. I do not use the flavor packet that comes with the prepackaged box, I have on occasion used sliced real potatoes still yummy.) I agree the dupes are better. I'm a child of the 70's and 80's eating meals at the table and talking was the thing to do. And the meal had to be long and hardy to stand up to the talks. Ty for sharing the memories are great to remember. Bless 🙌 your heart.

    Whenever I make hamburger helper, I always add extra cheese, a can of peas, a can of carrots, some sour cream to the Zesty Italian Shells. But ever since they changed the recipe to the italian shells version, its not the same anymore! Wish I could recreate that!!!

    Hamburger helper has never been my jam but I love how we all have weird-ish food we love from childhood. So I literally CRAVE sliced velvetta on wonder white bread.. why!?? My grandma made it for lunch all the time and sometimes it’s just what I need to feel her again and be comforted. Great video!

    Hamburger Helper Southwest without hamburger, with a can of black beans, and a can of corn. After I plate it I add shredded cheddar and sour cream.

    These are great recipes. I love my instant pot. I use it at least 3-4 times a week. If I forget to take out a pound of ground beef or ground chicken I just put it in my IP with a liquid of course for pressure cook time of 5 minutes. It is so much better than using the microwave to thaw it out. 365 days of slow and pressure cook TH-cam has some great IP recipes. She has a fantastic Crack chicken chili that we love and a cheesy cheese burger Mac that is so good. I also follow Six Sisters and they do loads of IP recipes. I cook potatoes and the eggs in my IP for potato salad and the eggs and potatoes turn out perfect every time. I also cook corn on the cob in my IP all the time. Break the cobs in half and stand on the trivet add a cup of milk and 2 tbps of butter and set to pressure for 5 minutes. The corn turns out amazing every time. FYI the slots in the handles of the IP are to stick ur lid in so u don't have to set the lid on your counter.

    We hit a sale on HH and bought around 10 boxes @ 47 cents a box! Lol. Our favorite is the stroganoff. When we are running low on groceries until our next paycheck or just want something fast to fix, this is my go to.

    I add petite peas and corn to my Spanish rice and stuff bell peppers with my leftovers and top with a piece of raw bacon and that is another dish. served with more vegetables as sides. One of my childhood favorites we had year round.

    Just found this video. I have been looking for copycat recipes for hamburger and tuna helper. I grew up on them too and continued to make them once on my own. Now I am looking for as many copycat recipes for restaurants and boxed meals that I enjoy because I want to eat healthier. My new motto is if I can't pronounce it and have no idea what it is - I shouldn't be eating it. Thank you so much for this video.

    Oh my goodness!1 My husband was addicted to Cheeseburger hamburger Helper and Creamy Tuna helper. That was 1979. I have a homemade version of the tuna helper. I am not a fan of hamburger so I will try using the italian sausage.

  • @janetmoore1124
    @janetmoore1124 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Loved this! I used to love the lasagna version in addition to my all-time favorite: stroganoff. I had to give up the lasagna version as they seem to have added something spicy (paprika?) that irritated my stomach. I do get the stroganoff every once in a while because, well, why not? but I do try to use a make-at-home version to control the salt, etc.

    • @leem200
      @leem200 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes I loved the lasagna when my kids were little. Was usually a Wed before church dinner, had forgotten it. Also, the stroganoff. Mainly I make homemade version of all. Same something in it makes me sick to my stomach. artificial dye or flavor or preservative. I make my own version of tuna casserole too but have brought the helper for those little league days. Mine are all grown now.

  • @CrazySunny1970
    @CrazySunny1970 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's fun to see another mom making their own version of hamburger helper. I cannot eat all the sodium that comes in the boxed dinners, no matter how tasty and easy they are. I'm anxious to try some of your versions of one pan meals
