Do you sometimes cook with ready mix (packaged) and present to your guest or spouse as home-cooked or fresh?

http://mixandcook.com is a website promoting recipes using instant mixes. How do you feel about that?Do you sometimes cook with ready mix (packaged) and present to your guest or spouse as home-cooked or fresh?
You'd like the show ';Semi Homemade'; with Sandra Lee, on Food Network...... If I'm using a mix (rarely), I don't lie and say it's homemade:) But, some things are just easier to make with mixes (bouillion, pie crusts, filo/puff pastry dough - to name a few)Do you sometimes cook with ready mix (packaged) and present to your guest or spouse as home-cooked or fresh?
In the professional kitchen this is called fast scratch, so you could get away with that, just add one or two fresh ingredients and you'll be fine
I'm not above that, thanks for giving the link. I do however try to stay away from alot of prepackaged foods because of sodium and preservatives
Hey you did make it at home technically it's just not made from scratch!
I always serve good food-no matter if some of it comes from a can or out of a box. Its the end result that matters.
