I have a half pound of cooked hamburger leftover from yesterday. What should I make tonight?

Answer 1

HAMBURGER HELPER!!!

Answer 2

Since it's already cooked, I would make a tomato sauce and crumble up the burger meat and add it & let simmer for an hour or so to let it blend along with Italian herbs & spices. Then you can make any pasta variety of your choice but not lasagna as you would'nt have enough sauce, with a crisp green salad. Keep this one simple - A half a pound won't make a pie, and if you want soup that would be good - a beef barley broth, if you have barley in the pantry and serve with crusty bread. (If you don't have any barley maybe you have rice or
perhaps orzo) will still need, celery, carrot & onion.
You could make a pizza with the tomato sauce and crumble the ground beef on top along with any other topping you have in the house - if the're in the house you already like them i.e. mushrooms, artichokes, olives, onions, peppers maybe a slice or two of any other meat in the fridge i.e. sausage, cold cuts.

Answer 3

If you really don't want to make anything, you can freeze it. I cook the whole package at once and freeze the other half that I don't use. That way when I take it out to use it it's already cooked and all I have to do is add it to whatever I am making. Otherwise hamburger strognoff is always a hit in my house.

Answer 4

You could make a tasty soup. The base is just water, a can of tomato sauce, and a pkg. of onion soup. Then add in mixed vegies of choice(I use onion, celery, corn ,carrot and beans), the meat , and seasonings: a little oregano, pepper, and onion salt. Then cook up some noodles, tortillini, or ravioli, and add them to the soup. Very tasty and easy.

A quick casserole would be to mix it with a can of creamed soup(celery or mushroom)add french style beans and cooked egg noodles. Add a little Salt and Pepper and bake at 350 about 30 minutes.
Good luck...
Merry Christmas

Answer 5

Baked Ziti
Hamburger Helper

Rice Beans and Picadillo
Add some tomato sauce, cubed union and green pepper minced garlic cloves, complete seasoning and a little of cooking wine (opptional if you want to go all out add some olives, raisins and make some cubed fries and add them at the end)

Answer 6

A pasta sauce with plenty of tomatoes to pad it out a bit.
Chili con Carne, with a tin of red beans to pad it out.
Make the sauce first and add the cooked hamburger (my guess is you mean mince) at the end, just to heat it through.

Answer 7

Hi Breezer......
Taco salad !
Combine the HB with some torn lettuce+rough chopped tomato+sliced black olives+cheddar cheese+rough chopped kidney beans+some chopped onion. Add a little cilantro if you have it handy...little bit of parsley flakes can work too.

Make a dressing of mayo and taco seasoning mix and stir into the salad...you just need enough dressing to coat the salad...too much overpowers it and weighs it (and you) down.

Top with some crushed Dorito Nacho Cheese chips. ...the crushed chips really set the salad off and you're on your way.
