It was only Old Del Paso taco shells, ground beef, cheese and Texas Pete (maybe canned tomatoes and lettuce if you’re family was trying to round it out). A big bag of Banquet nuggets was definitely a struggle meal. Just something to throw at your kids lol. N a bowl of chilli was a struggle meal because that was dinner lol. Cheap and didn’t take too many ingredients. That’s what they all have in common, meals that didn’t take too many ingredients. That’s what makes it struggle.
