A Little Help With Dinner

There' are days when you don't feel like going whole hog when making dinner,You had a busy day or it was spent doing strenuous chores. This is when home chefs need a little help with making dinner. Call  in classic aides such as Hamburger Helper  Underwood devilled meats and any canned soup to create a tasty meal that's full of flavor not full of work

Sometimes it is hard to whip up a nutritious meal from scratch.If you're too tired to cook then try Hamburger Helper. This is a quick way to have a hearty  hot dish that the kids will love.It just browning ground chuck or even soy crumbles in a skillet and adding sauce and pasta.There are recipes out there where you can make your own from scratch. They're slightly more labor intensive and if you have the energy go for it. If not then make the real deal.There are so many different types that you can make with chicken , beef or  tuna. Srve with a nice veggie loaded salad and you have a good weekday meal. Another quick dinner is pasta with jarred sauce. Yes, it's not as good as the homemade kind  but homemade sauce is labor intensive. It's easier and quicker just to unscrew a lid and pour premade sauce into a sauce pan. Have it with a broccoli salad and garlic bread to round it out.

A home chef's best friend is any of the Underwood devilled meats. These are wonderful to have around because they are so versatile. My favorite easy dinner go to a ham or chicken salad on toasted croissants. It's just taking one can of either the ham or chicken and blending it  well with two tablespoons of  mayo. Add a heavy dash of tarragon for the chicken and celery seed for the ham for extra flavor. This mix also makes a great cracker topper if you're in need of instant hors d'ouevres.Underwood also makes  roast beef and liverwurst versions too as well as a corned beef  one.You can use any of them to also fill wraps. Add some chopped veggies like broccoli , tomatoes and onions along with cheese to make a quick supper . A super easy hot meal is soup. Always have a few cans on hand for those nights when just opening a can is a chore. to make this simple meal special also have some Ritz crackers or better yet, warmed crusty rolls and butter as extras.


There are days when a home cooked hot dinner is just not feasible. Rely on aids such as Hamburger helper , devilled ham or canned soup. They'll help in creating an easy but filling meal your family will love.
