Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large skillet.
  2. Mix the seasoning packet into the water (chicken stock) (warm the water or chicken stock in the microwave first for better mixing)
  3. Add the water, seasonings, milk, noodles to the ground beef. Cover with a lid. Cook on medium high for about 10 minutes until as thick as you prefer. Will become thicker the more you cook it.
  4. Serve hot.

Notes

  • PRO TIP:  If you are concerned about serving hamburger helper to your family, don't be.  You are feeding them.  That's the most important thing! 
  • Sometimes it is difficult to mix the powder mix into the liquid (it occasionally likes to clump). . To avoid this, heat your liquid in the microwave for 1 minute and add the spice packet to that liquid. Mix well with a fork and then add it to your skillet.
  • To make your dish more healthy, consider adding veggies to the mix. . Frozen veggies you can add to the last 10 minutes of cooking and the same with canned veggies (pour the can water off before adding). .
  • If you are adding veggies, think through if the veggie will taste good with your dish. For example, peas or broccoli with a cheesy dish will be yummy. Tomatoes added to a tomato based dish also yummy. Broccoli to a tomato dish, maybe not.
  • Switch out water in the recipe for broth or stock (chicken or vegetable probably work best) to add a ton of flavor.
