Some days I really miss meat. Now I have to be totally honest, I have had some in the past few months but I’m talking maybe a total of 5 times whereas I was previously a bascially everyday meat eater.. and that’s a big adjustment for a midwest girl like me. So when I came across this recipe for Vegan Hamburger Helper I got a little excited (again, been eating a lot of curry over here) and I was very eager to try it out. I’ll admit, I was slightly apprehensive about the meat substitute, but I was really impressed by the texture and flavor! I would also like to try this with jackfruit just to see how that compares but I have yet to venture that far.
On top of being yummy, this Vegan Hamburger Helper came together super quick; I made the vegan nacho cheese a few nights before so I just had to pull it out of the refrigerator and throw the rest of the ingredients together which made this already easy meal even better! I’ve always had a problem with things like Hamburger Helper because there are no real ingredients and it’s packed with so many preservatives and lacks any nutritional value that I just couldn’t do it. We don’t have that problem here with our cheese being made of fresh veggies and the whole thing topped with fresh tomatoes we get the best of both worlds.. yummy and healthy! Another vegan win in my book!
