Veggie Filled Homemade Hamburger Helper

Course: Main Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
  • 1 small onion
  • 3/4 cup chopped veggies
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 oz tomato sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 2 cups macaroni
  • 2-3 cup cheese

Method
 

  1. Brown the ground beef.
  2. After it has been browned, add the chopped veggies. I actually threw my vegetables into my food processor to make them extra small (and therefore extra hard to pick out).
  3. Add all of the spices and stir them in.
  4. Next add the tomato sauce, beef broth, milk, and macaroni. Stir and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes with a cover slightly vented, or until macaroni is tender.
  6. Add the cheese, stir in, and allow to melt before serving.
