Hamburger Helper *giveaway*

Sometimes I like to make fancy dinners or try out new recipes. Other times I'm looking for something quick to make that's more than just sandwiches and soup. That's where meals like Hamburger Helper come in handy. What could be easier than browning a little bit of ground beef, adding a few things like milk, water, noodles and sauce mix and simmering? I totally take advantage of my time when making these meals and wipe down counter tops, sweep floors, empty the dishwasher, etc. while cooking this. I get some necessary kitchen cleaning done and get dinner made at the same time.


Hamburger Helper has two new flavors they've added to their selections. MyBlogSpark and the Betty Crocker Brand and General Mills sent me both the Cheesy Italian Beef and Ultimate Beef Stroganoff to try out. So far my family has tried the Cheesy Italian Beef. I mixed it up as directed using some ground sirloin. My family seemed to enjoy the meal and I enjoyed the ease of dinner that night.

My husband is a stinker and doesn't like stroganoff, so I'll be making that some night when he's working. I'm sure my oldest will like it, as will I. We don't eat food like this often, but when we do it's like a comfort food treat.

Do you want to save 70 cents on a box of Hamburger Helper? You can! Just click here to print your coupon out.

And now, how would you like to win a prize pack like the one pictured below? See below the photo for how you can!


To enter for your chance at this prize pack answer the following question in the comments section of this post: Which of the two new Hamburger Helper varieties is your family most looking forward to trying for a convenient and delicious meal?
