Homemade “Hamburger Helper” Recipe

1 pound ground beef (brown & drain)

1/2 cup of mix (recipe above)

2 cups noodles (I usually use elbow macaroni or egg noodles)

2 cups water

Mix together browned meat and dry mix. Mix in the water and noodles. Stir well, there may be some small lumps, don’t worry, that’s normal. Bring to a boil over a medium-high heat until mixture boils. Let it boil about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Lower heat, cover and simmer until noodles are cooked, about 15-20 minutes. Depending on how many you are feeding, you can adjust the amount of water & noodles.
