With my additions I give it 5 stars. I added a can of Rotel, decreased the water by 1/4 cup, and added a chopped red pepper with the onion. I doubled the cheese. I served it topped with sour cream and sliced avocado. I don't buy Hamburger Helper because of all the crap in it (MSG, HFCS, dyes, etc) so this recipe was very helpful.

I loved Hamburger Helper as a kid but just can't stand boxed mixes these days. So it was really fun to try this recipe and we all loved it! I didn't have and groundbeef, so we used hot sausage. I also used my own homemade taco seasoning. It took a little more water than the recipe called for. Terrific and fun recipe!

This was very good and easy to make. My taco seasoning was a bulk package that I found in the produce dept of my grocery store- it gave no indication of the "hot" level.... with 4 Tbsp that the recipe called for made our meal extremely hot! Next time I will either use less, or make sure that my seasoning is a mild blend. I will definately try this recipe again though!

Mom of 2, a girl and a boy who are 11 and soooo picky, neither of them like what the other likes so cooking is a chore! heh One's in the oven still baking ;) I'm due Dec '08. I'm also a step-mom to yet another 11 year old who has never eaten a sandwich and outright refuses to!
I'm originally from Northern Ontario, but moved to Virginia 12 years ago for school. Two years ago I moved up to MA and got my first lesson on a gas stove, I've never had one ever! I would never go back to electric again lol
'Zaar has been such a lifesaver for me when it comes to recipes I've rarely had one that has ever failed the family...but there was this one time...heh
Well I guess that's the short fast version...maybe one day i'll actually sit down and right a "real" about me page :)
