Hamburger Helper Recipe

Recipe By Carls Bad Cravings

This homemade hamburger helper is the ultimate comfort food your whole family will crave and its way better than the original Its a macaroni and beef pasta swaddled in a rich, silky, cheese sauce thats made without any processed cheeses or packets but still takes just minutes to make. All the ingredients are cooked in one pot (even the pasta), so you literally only have one pot to clean aka nothing beats the taste, comfort or convenience. This hamburger helper recipe is also easy to customize by using ground turkey, adding different veggies, cheese, spices, pasta etc. So its an awesome base for whatever your heart desires. This homemade hamburger helper recipe is also a make-ahead and freezer friendly hero for all those busy weeknights. Now just whip up some garlic bread and roasted broccoli and you will be the dinner hero
