just thought id share some ideas for making hamburger/chicken helper recipes veggie friendly. use tvp or veggie burger crumbles or vita-burger chunks instead of ground beef. Use seitan or tofu instead of chicken. your meat eating friends will love it.
i was thinking about this earlier... i bet they taste pretty good without any meat or meat substitute too.... though it's been so long since i've had a "helper" meal
I'f you dont use a meat substitute, you need to find another filler such as veggies or beans, otherwise it will lack depth and not be so filling.
Mmmmm... I think adding beans wound be yummy in most "helper" dishes. Especially the mexican ones. My husband HATES "helper" meals. But my son and I love them. We dont each much meat, I do make "Tuna Helper" though. But I never thought about using beans. Sounds excellent.
Hi there. I've heard of hamburger helper before, but I don't know what it is. Just out of interest, can someone tell me, please? Peace, Bunbury.
its this caserole type food that you can get from a box/mix its not half bad but it can get gross after sooo much of it
Oh, thanks. I think I'm startng to get the idea.... I can't think of any equivalents....so do you add water to it?
Thanks Grobe. I'm just interested (in pretty much everything) - not being American, I didn't know what it was, so I thought I'd ask.
