cheap and easy

I had an experiment that worked out and want to share.

We had a busy busy day and didn't get home until dinner time. During my usual rummage through the cupboards this is what I found. 16 ounces of noodles, 1 can of Hunts spaghetti sauce and 1 pound of hamburger.

TA DA, home-style hamburger helper. I added some mozzarella cheese over the top before I served it. The guys said they thought I should add some mushrooms, green peppers and onions next time (ick). Maybe. I was thinking maybe I could add some leftover chili, that would be good. MUCH better than any hamburger helper boxed meal, cheaper, and done in only 20 minutes

Hamburger......... mine
noodles................ 1.00
hunts................... .69
green beans....... mine
cheese................ .50
salad................... 1.00
biscuits.............. 2.00
milk and misc... .80 = 5.99 for 11 people + leftovers
