Homemade Hamburger Helper

Add bell peppers and mushrooms for some extra veggies

I made this yesterday and it makes for great leftovers! I did make 1 whole box of pasta (which is about 1 pound) and doubled the amount of stock/broth (so 4 cups instead of 2) used to cook the pasta, other than that, the rest of the ingredient amounts stayed the same. It was delicious!

I made it in a shallow pan and the pasta burned to bottom. Will try a sauce pan if we make it again. Very kid friendly

I hated this. Had about 4 bites and made something else instead. Too much tomato and cheddar flavor & heavy cream for me.

This turned out fine. Like Hamburger Helper but a little tastier. Had to add extra water for the noodles.

Just ok. Was expecting more given the rave reviews but the flavors were just off. Even the kids barely ate it

Had to use way more broth as the noodles soaked it all once added. I tweaked it and added 2 teaspoons of Worcester sauce, 2 tb spoons of beef bouillon and half a cup of heavy creme at the end with the cheese. One word AMAZING. Will definitely do again my kids and hubby loved it!

So I had to add way more broth to bring this together, because the 2cups it calls for gets soaked up by the noodles very quickly, everything was beginning to burn. Otherwise this dish turned out great!

One of our favorites! This time I used sharp cheddar and WOW!!

Decent flavor for the most part. Needed a little more salt and pepper and maybe a touch more garlic. There wasn't a lot of sauce with it so I'd add a little more tomato sauce when cooking it. Overall a really easy weeknight meal just needed a little modification to make it great

Cooking noodles in sauce takes a really long time!!! Maybe make them before hand??

I didn't have seasoned salt, but don't think it would've made a difference. This is disgusting. Used homemade tomato sauce, along with some fresh spices. Will never make again.

I used block of cream cheese Add mushrooms for a change

Used Spinach and cream cheese (not cream)

The only thing I would do differently is to cook the pasta separately, it took forever to cook into the tomato/ broth mixture and I had to add lots of extra water to get it to fully cook. Used cream cheese rather than cream.
