Can you use leftover grilled hamburgers
with to make a macaroni, tomato, and corn mix? We have three left over. Will it be too dry?
Just re-heat them and eat them like one ate the other ones.
Twice-done hamburgers are great.

1. I am a big fan of leftover hamburgers,
but i don't try to make a new meal out of them, I just like to warm them up and eat them like they were originally intended.
<<<am now a fan, as with the case of Big Mo, of the cbayer primitive.

3. I'm trying to do something creative with them before they go bad
Maybe something like a goulash.
Aw geezuz. Pay attention to the cbayer primitive; she has the right idea.
And it's only
three hamburgers, for crying out loud. Feed the raccoon.

5. Well, it's worth a try. What do you have to lose?
I don't know if it's age related or what, but I would rather have ground meat than a steak these days.
I made meatballs tonight that were fantastic, if I do say so myself.

2. Depends on the burgers, I'd say.
I'd surely try to use them. Add extra tomato, if concerned about dryness.

4. That was my thought
some canned corn [franksolich: yikes!], the hamburger meat broken up and some crushed tomatoes along with macaroni and cheese.
On the stove or in the oven.
Remind me never to dine in the home of the raccoon-bitten primitive, because she uses
canned [franksolich: shudder!] glop and gorp, otherwise known as "canned vegetables."

7. If I use one of these recipes
that uses ground beef, how do you think I should go with it? Maybe break it up at the last minute before baking it?
Aw, just re-heat them, slip them onto buns, pour some ketchup on them.
Or since there's only
three of them, feed them to the raccoon.
Geezuz.

8. Not unless somebody squashed the hamburgers to make them cook faster
which efficiently squashes out the juice and does nothing else.
If they were cooked over charcoal, they won't taste like the usual mix, but that's about it.
<<<suspects Ms. Hindenberg's being sarcastic here.

9. I hate to waste food
and these burgers are from Saturday. If I don't do something with them, they will go to waste. Plus, I could sneak some vegetables in there.
Canned vegetables are
not vegetables, sweetheart; they're just glop and gorp.

10. Oh, absolutely
I'd definitely use them some way, even buried in tomato/green chile/onion/garlic and covered in foil and baked to be eaten as (surprise) hamburgers with cooked salsa.
I've just used burgers grilled over charcoal and noticed they changed the flavor of anything I generally used uncooked ground beef in. It doesn't follow that the change was unwelcome.

11. Here's what I did - I have a medium can of crushed tomatoes
corn, macaroni and cheese. Should I add a can of green beans, or would that be too much? I'm doing all of this before adding the ground beef on the stove.
Gaaaaaah.....

12. Don't gild the lily, serve it as a side if you must.

13. I put it in.
I think it tastes pretty good, if nobody else does, they can go to the restaurant of their choice
<<<thinks the raccoon-bitten primitive makes life more difficult for herself than she needs to.
