If you are trying to feed a big family, I'd suggest getting some TVP, which is a soy based meat alternative that is very cheap. There are even brown flavored ones that look like beef. Use it + your meat and you have and the expensive meat goes a lot further!https://www.usaemergencysupply.com/ ... age/texturized_vegetable_protein.htm

RE: Homemade Hamburger Helper
Thanlk you to the guest who posted the recipe with the nonfat dry milk, cornstarch, etc. I had this one a long time ago and could not find it anywhere. It truly is a great recipe if you don't want to buy the packaged hamburg helper.

RE: Homemade Hamburger Helper
Nice site. I checked this out earlier, since I decided to make my own batch. I used the following which was available...
"Hankburger Helper
1 lb of ground hamburger
12 oz. of bowtie noodles
1 can (10-11 oz.) of mushroom gravy
1 Step Skillet Mac seasoning"
Just cook the first three like your normally would, mix 'em up and add the seasoning (3 tablespoons if you like to measure everything). I'm not sure if this seasoning is still being made, but I bought a bunch at a discount store I frequent. It's a blend of garlic, onion, red pepper and italian seasoning
A few quick notes... 16 oz. pasta would've probably been a better choice, but I like a lot of meat. Also, a can of peas probably would've went great with the mushroom gravy, but I didn't have any. I'll be trying this next time I make it.

RE: Homemade Hamburger Helper
I like this:
1# ground beef
I can peas
2 Packets brown gravy mix, or 2 cups brown gravy made
2-3 handfulls of egg noodles
salt & pepper
Season ground beef and cook until done
Add the cooked noodles and the gravy mix, or premade gravy and the can of drained peas...cook through and enjoy!

Hamburger Helper
There is a recipe my mom makes, It is one pound hamburger, one can corn, and 2 cans tomato soup no water. Mix all of them together in large skillet and add cooked elbow macaroni...then I like to throw some mozzarella on top, and I also like to put on cajun seasoning, but that is entirely optional to taste.

Hi Margaret
That should read 1 2/3 cups fat-free dry milk powder.

RE: Homemade Hamburger Helper
ingredients list 1 2/3 cups fat: what kind of fat?
also lists free dry milk powder but not what "free" and not how much to use.

RE: Homemade Hamburger Helper
Trying to feed a family of seven on a very limited budget I started making my own hamburger helpers. Start with boxed macaroni & cheese (I use generic that i can get for 3-4 for a dollar) follow pkg directions, add some cooked chopmeat and depending on what flavor you want, add either some tomatoe sauce or brown gravy. My kids love it.

RE: Homemade Hamburger Helper
I have an old family recipe:
Its' called "Peanuts"
One lb. of chop meat.
One lb. of elbow macaroni
2 cans of Campbells Tomato Soup, do not add water to soup
Fry chop meat in frying pan, drain grease.
Add two cans of tomato soup, mix with meat and heat until hot. Boil macaroni, drain water. Add tomato soup and chopmeat mixture to drained macaroni in pot. Serve immediately. Some people like to add ketchup. (Not me or my kids).
My kids go crazy for this,,,it doesn't sound like it would be that good, but it is...try it. Let me know how they liked it. ""
