I made Homemade Hamburger Helper for dinner tonight. It was bad. Seriously....BAD. Small T, who is the ultimate fan of Hamburger Helper said, "This is gross!". Big C wouldn't even try it. The kids have to leave in just a few minutes to meet the school bus for the game and now they don't have dinner unless they grab a quick sandwich out of the refrigerator. Now....I would share this recipe, but it would be mean of me to do so. I don't want to hurt someone's feelings when they worked really hard to develop this and even shared the recipe on their website. With that said, I will be doing further research to find a better homemade version of this.
