Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb ground beef (at least 80% lean)
  • 1 1/2 cups hot water
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 box (6.6 oz) Hamburger Helper™ Cheeseburger Macaroni
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained, rinsed
  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed

Steps

  • 1
    In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, breaking up and stirring; drain.
  • 2
    Stir in hot water, milk, and sauce mix and uncooked pasta (from Hamburger Helper box). Heat to boiling.
  • 3
    Reduce heat. Cover; simmer 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender. Stir in beans and peas. Cook uncovered 1 to 3 minutes or until heated through.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Cover and refrigerate any remaining black beans. Add to salads, soup, tacos or casseroles.
  • tip 2
    Add carrot and celery sticks and a cluster of grapes to round out the meal.
  • tip 3
    Did you know that rinsing and draining canned beans removes some of the sodium and excess starch? Simply open a can of beans, and pour contents into a colander. Rinse with cold water until liquid runs clear. Shake colander to remove excess water.
