  • get buns and a can of sloppy joe sauce. Can't cost more then a couple dollars.

    You can buy a taco seasoning packet for about $1.00, add it to the ground beef when its nearing the end of cooking and let it simmer until the meat is done. Then add that to the mac and cheese. You can also slice a bell pepper in at the end for a little more nutrients. Good luck!

    Geez, you sound badly off. You can come and live at my house. I do home baking and we have a cat.

    food stamps so you can stock up
    go to a foodbank.

    it's funny. my husband grew up poor and is soooooo picky. He wouldn't eat leftovers when we got married. I told him he doesn't get a choice. I made him cook for a week, every day, a new meal. He got used to eating leftovers and now he'll eat what we have.

    buy milk then you can make mac and cheese and ham helper,buy top ramen 0.33,gd luck and tell your hubby that you have to work with what you have

    well if your short of money then PICKY is not a luxury he can afford he should get over it. and by the wording" your" I am assuming he is part of this or are you just tryin to keep an Ahole happy . The little girl comes first !

    try food

    Brie i think its time to get a better job!!!!!!!!!!

    If you have these or can improvise to have these, you can make salisbury steak.

    1 can soup, french onion condensed
    1 1/2 Pounds ground beef
    1/2 cup bread crumbs dry
    1 each egg slightly beaten
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 dash black pepper
    1 tablespoon flour, all-purpose
    1/4 cup ketchup
    1/4 cup water
    1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
    1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard

    Good luck!

    there are some nice inexpensive things you can buy at the store but your hubby shouldn't be so picky especially when things are tight. Its just food for the purpose of nutrition not for enjoyment that's what you are for so tell him I said to eat what ever and how ever you fix it and when he is done you will meet him in the bedroom.

    Here are a couple of easy recipes:

    Hamburger Casserole

    Hamburger Pie:

    So you have 10 bucks. I'm sure that will buy you milk and the hamburger helper you like.

    I smoke as well, but the cost of a cigarette never ever deprived my children of adequate food or a proper diet.

    Buy the milk and make Mac & Cheese and buy the Hamburger helper. You know what to do with both of them.
