WTH: No HH Love?!

[LenaGardner]

Chiming in late but....

I don't think I had it once at home growing up because we did not eat red meat at all....but I knew what it was from eating at friends' houses. I thought I'd get off easy once I moved out and I could make it for an easy supper....wrong! XDH wouldn't touch it because he said his mom made it 3x a week growing up!

So after 7 years with him, and meeting David who does like it, we have it on occasion....maybe once a month? Everyone in the house likes it so it's a good solution, though I don't consider it quick...it takes like 1/2 hour and my standard for quick is different than that!

We like the 3 cheese kind but I put ground turkey or ground chicken in it because I'm still not much of a red meat eater. Habit, I guess.

I love it, but my husband can't stand it, so I rarely make it anymore. Most of the kiddos liked it too when I used to make it.

wow. i make HH once week sometimes, lol I dont' like all of them; its usually only a couple of them that i buy.

my mom makes it. she always has. it's what we all grew up with. she worked evenings when my brother and i were growing up. so, when she worked, she'd make HH and leave it. since my dad can't cook.
even now, we're all grown up (lol). she works 3-11, and generally cooks before she leaves. HH to the rescue! we like chicken helper too. i prefer it, actually.



oh, and col. i agree. i LOVE spaghetti-o's. mom buys them in bulk. cause my brother eats them after school. lol

I'm dying over here. I can't believe we had such a lengthy discussion about Hamburger Helper!
