My Dads Italian Hamburger Helper Recipes

Steps:

• 1 Cook pasta as directed on box.
• 2 Meanwhile, brown ground beef with garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
• 3 Drain grease and add sauce.
• 4 Heat.
• 5 Drain pasta and add to sauce mixture.
• 6 Stir in cheese until it just melts.
• 7 Serve with garlic bread and salad.
• My Tip's: The only thing I added was a little bit of chopped onion when I brown the beef. I used a bit less pasta and a bit more beef (approx 25%). I used 1 cup cheddar cheese and 1/3 cup of cottage cheese to make it creamy at the end. It was twice as yummy the next day for lunch. This was a quick, easy recipe that I will be working into my OAMC routine. Today, I added garlic and chopped onion to the hamburg, like always. Next time, I will use half the pasta called for and will use my usual mix of basil and oregano in place of the italian seasonings.

Steps:

• Brown ground beef in 10-inch skillet; drain.
• Stir in uncooked pasta and sauce mix (from Hamburger Helper box), milk and hot water. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; stir in peas. Cover and simmer 20 to 25 minutes or until pasta is tender.
• Remove from heat (sauce will thicken as it stands).

Steps:

• 1. Heat a larger skillet over medium heat. Brown the ground beef, paprika, parsley, onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• 2. Drain grease when browned.
• 3. Add beef broth.
• 4. Add milk.
• 5. Add tomato sauce.
• 6. Add noodles.
• 7. Stir and bring to a boil.
• 8. Cover and simmer 10-12 minutes. Stir frequently so it doesn't stick.
• 9. Stir in cheese until melted. Serve.
