LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain.
  • 2 Stir in uncooked Pasta, Sauce Mix, milk, hot water, the steak sauce and mushrooms. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender. Remove from heat.
  • 3 Top with onions. Cover; let stand about 5 minutes or until sauce is as thick as you'd like (sauce will thicken as it stands).

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

You can cut some of the fat from this dish by rinsing the ground beef with hot water after draining. Simply place browned beef in a strainer and rinse with hot, running water. Pat dry with a paper towel and return to skillet.

French-fried onions add irresistible crunch to this yummy hamburger dish. But if you don’t have any on hand, you can use crushed potato, corn or tortilla chips instead!

This was the perfect dinner after a long day. I was very hungry and didn't want to take too long to make dinner. I found it a bit salty between the hamburger helper and the French fried onions. I pretty much stuck to the directions except after putting on the French fried onions, I left the lid off because I didn't want them getting soggy. I served this by itself, but if I were to make it again I would probably serve it with a salad to cut the salt/fat. However, my daughter loved the noodles and that's pretty big because she is very picky. I think the steak sauce made it though because otherwise it wouldn't really have much flavor.

I actually really liked this, and so did my 3 year old. I loved the steak sauce in it, in fact I probably would add just a tad bit more next time to get more of the flavor. Quick and easy to make, and very good.
