Directions

1 Cook beef in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain.
2 Stir in hot water, milk, uncooked pasta and sauce mix (from Hambuger Helper box). Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally.
3 Reduce heat; cover and simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender. Remove from heat and uncover (sauce will thicken as it stands).
4 Arrange 1 cup tortilla chips on each of 5 serving plates. Spoon about 1 cup beef mixture over tortilla chips on each plate. Top each with 1/4 cup salsa and about 2 tablespoons sour cream. Sprinkle with olives and onions.

The salt content in all Hamburger Helpers is so high that we have quit eating them....what is the problem with letting the consumer add salt and not forcing it on him (or her). The stroganoff had almost 4 GRAMS of salt in one box!
