I know it’s been a while since we have done a meal like this. Thre are more people using food banks than ever. People getting in line for banks that don’t open till three in the afternoon yet they are getting in line at six am. This is going to get more frequent as the year goes by. If you are new here’s how it works. I take three or four items I currently have that you would get from a food bank. Then we combine them to make a meal that will be delicious and feeling for every member of your house. So here we go…
The Hamburg Helper I chose was Cheesey Enchilada. I opted to use home-canned chicken. Hamburg helper is something that food banks across the country often get donated to them. Along with canned beans, corn. As a matter of fact the corn I used for this video is a can I was given by a local church last December with ham, and other items.
Take a pound of meat you have on hand. Whatever it be as long as it is either a half a pound to a pound. Of course, if you have to double this. Brown the meat off if it’s not already cooked. As we go through the year I do suspect we will start seeing precooked frozen meats and canned meats at banks. I have already had this experience. A couple of months ago a friend gave me pork for tacos that were frozen and cooked. This is where having a southwest, taco, or enchilada helper in your box. Of course, you can use the store brand if that is what you have. What I added, was a can of corn, pinto beans, and tomatoes with chilies. It was so good. The chilies added a nice bite and the corn had a sweetness to it.
If you do this meal please share what you add and what you change. Let’s help each other and inspire each other.
