Another quick and tasteful dish by kraft. I used canned corn instead of frozen. Worked just as well..

Pretty simple to make, made it tonight after a busy night of baseball practice. My family liked it (and I have a picky one). They did say next time to made the corn on the side instead. I took anothers idea and paired it with a salad and cresent rolls.

This was an EXCELLENT recipe and I would most definatly make it again. I did not put in green onions, and next time I would add some chopped onion when browning the hamburger. My 'picky' husband had three servings!! NO leftovers!! AAA+++

This is one of my family's favorites. Comfort food. Taste great with Crescent Rolls. I make this at least twice a month.
