View Full Version : Hot Dog Helper ???
Bonniegirl 10-07-2021, 10:49 PM I bought some cheeseburger macaroni flavored Hamburger helper recently and took it out of the cupboard to make tonight for dinner and noticed the top of the box says " Try using hotdogs instead of ground beef "!! And on the back the directions show side my side how to make the hamburger version and now the hot dog version !! IDK why but it just strikes me funny! So it would be Hot Dog helper right? :lol:
Well we eat hot dogs and macaroni and cheese , it's the same thing really but for some reason I find it humorous! Try using hotdogs instead of ground beef ! :lol::D I will try this next time, although I prefer my hotdogs with baked beans or potato salad! ;)
Does anyone else find this funny or am I very easily amused ? :crazy:

GentlemanJim 10-07-2021, 11:04 PM Periodically, someone donates an entire pallet of hot dogs to one of our local soup kitchens. And they enjoy cutting the dogs into meatball sized slices, and incorporating them into their soup of the day.
LOL, you should hear the beneficiaries scowl about "hot dog soup"
Personally, I believe I would pass on hot dog helper. I've been known to BBQ sausage a time or two though.

If we have a few hotdogs left from a pack , we make them for breakfast with eggs instead of sausage or bacon ! Called Juevos con wienies (eggs & hotdogs in Spanish) , it's quite good and ya feel good that your not wasting food by using up the left over hotdogs! ;):)
I often use ground turkey instead of beef in my Hamburger helper, I have come across boxes that said you can substitute this and I didn't find that humorous but something about the hotdogs tickled my funny bone!! :lol::D

It does seem a little unusual,...but nothing wrong with a bit of creativity. I'm a big fan of "dressing up" prefab meals. By the time I'm done with them you'd never guess they started as Stouffer's. ;)

You always did enjoy a good wiener joke.

It IS funny, and odd. I'd never think of that.
Hot dogs go with baked beans. Now I'm picturing a picnic and out comes not hot dogs on buns, but hot dogs mixed in with "hot dog helper."
The other funny thing on that box, "Made with REAL CHEESE." Sad they have to say that.
By the way what is everyone's favorite brand? A friend clued me in to Hebrew National years ago.

A lot of Helpers have gone by the wayside... there used to be a Chicken Helper I think lol

I'm with Bonnie on this: Ball Park beef franks... or other all-beef hot dogs.
stevea 10-09-2021, 08:05 AM Right, it's gotta be all-beef.
If not, don't look at the ingredients. Probably best not to, anyway.
Bonniegirl 11-12-2021, 05:03 PM I finally made this !!:cool: I just had " Hotdog helper " for lunch ! ;)Pretty good, kind of interesting with the hotdogs rather than ground beef or ground turkey ! :eek:Pretty much basicly like Mac N cheese with cut up HD's !!! ;)
I had peas with it !!:)
