A Semi Homemade Meal


So, have you heard of Sandra Lee, the Semi Homemade cook? She starts her recipes with store-bought items and then "tweaks" them to make new dishes. Check out her website www.semihomemade.com some time; good stuff! Anyway, following that same vein of thinking, I recently "tweaked" some recipes for dinner:


Did you know you can make Hamburger Helper with chicken? It worked especially well with the Cheesy Enchilada mix! Just dice and brown boneless, skinless chicken breasts and drain the fat. Prepare per package directions and serve with tortilla chips for dipping!


For a great accompaniment/topping, I diced an avocado and tossed it with jarred salsa - so simple and soooooo good!

Best of all, the box of Hamburger Helper only cost me a buck at the "dented can" store! Can't beat that!
