Wow ! Your version of Hamburger Helper looks so delicious . Adding this to my list of recipes . Will be today's dinner . Thanks for sharing ❤☺

[@jarrodjefferson8652]

You are a beast in the kitchen I make lot's of your recipes

[@thesquad2253]

Dont they sell this at Walmart

[@shainalj1]

You made my toddler tell me "You make the best food ever!" with this recipe!!! That's a huge compliment coming from a picky 3 year old. I'm forever indebted to you lol

[@heatherj.3393]

I made this last night. Boy WHAT?! SO GOOD!! My husband thought so too. And the best part is...I GOT LEFTOVERS! Yes, do a printable version. This one is for the books!

[@planbmindset9475]

It's going to taste even better after the seasonings set in......bussin!

[@teo5836]

It’s good to hear that a young female is trying to get in the kitchen n play her role as an obedient wife.

[@jondoe384]

@teo5836 feels good making others happy and fed, that's for sure 👌

[@princesssolomon1435]

Made it to many times and still love it

[@justdeepee1238]

I needed a quick easy recipe for my 3 linebacker sized nephews who dropped by to watch the NBA playoffs with me. They loved it! Of course I doubled the recipe. At the end of the evening they wanted to make to-go plates and were thrilled when I told them they could take the rest of the pan home. One even offered to pay me to make it again so this is a keeper! Thanks for sharing.

[@tiffanybabers8547]

I can’t wait to make this! I want to see more 30 minute meals I’m a busy mom with 3 boys who always hungry lol 😂

[@ivandrago9140]

This was a staple at our house for Saturday supper but it was pre packaged, this is on a whole other level. Great recipe 👌

[@MrMakeItHappen]

classic!

[@lifeisbeautiful9455]

I have not hear that word supper in years 😁😁

[@sunrae7680]

Good ole Hamburger Helper. High blood pressure in a box. It was Dee-lish! 😀😁😂

[@sassymama527]

Y'all I made this using whatever I had in my pantry and it was so bomb! Small elbows, ground beef, diced shallot, fresh parsley, 1 cup tomato sauce, 1/2 can Campbell's mushroom cooking soup (not cream of mushroom), dijon mustard, W sauce, extra sharp cheddar, and my spice essentials. baby it was fire! Pro tip: Add a packet of In-N-Out spread to your sauce! I didn't have ketchup or broth so I used that and it tasted like an In-N-Out cheeseburger!

[@tamarap2539]

Just made this and when I tell you it’s good, IT’S SO GOOD! Bit my tongue twice because I was chewing too fast 😅. Thank you for another great recipe.

[@lisalopez02149]

😂😂😂

[@redxsage]

That looks spectacular! I made Hamburger Helper many times as a young adult. Over the years I have become more comfortable with the notion of making such recipes _'my own'_ by tweaking them much as you have shown here. Generally, using good ingredients you know you'll like combined with proven technique results in success. Thank you. 😁

[@user-mk5mt3fg8m]

Yes ✅ to printable recipes! Makes cooking your recipes much easier. Thank you, great stuff.

[@megamattoutdoors4590]

Absolutely great for a quick meal. Definitely going to try this. Really good idea for the printable recipes. I would get a 3 ring binder and run out of toner

[@shondawright4239]

This was sooo good! These flavors together were bussin! My family enjoyed this meal and so did I!

[@tstalk4388]

[@sthmpsnoma]

I agree with your idea on adding the recipes to your website. I love your digital cookbooks and this would be a great addition.

[@latoyamatson6197]

I'm sitting here trying so hard to find new meals For my "now we're all teenagers and picky as hell" will eat and stumbled across this. They will love it! I normally make macaroni and cheese and add ground beef. I call it homemade hamburger helper cuz I like to have some credit ya know....but this?! Holy hell! Now THAT is homemade hamburger helper!

[@MrWS-fq1wj]

Gonna try this one! Looks amazing and I love your twist to this recipe.

[@kmyway2334]

Made this last night... FANTASTIC!! My family loved it. I added mushrooms, did not add bacon and instead of smoked paprika, i used liquid smoke. Turned out great. Side salad and garlic bread. 😊

[@ustano6784]

Just made this and it is delicious!!! Thanks Mr. Make It Happen!!

[@vetgirl71]

I made your recipe tonight and it’s DELICIOUS! The only thing I did differently was and red & green peppers and 1 tbsp of better than bouillon paste with light cream. I didn’t put the sour cream in either. But I was skeptical about the ketchup and mustard, but makes it taste awesome! Thanks for sharing! 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾😊❤️

[@billyjoburnette357]

Hi, I love the idea of putting the recipes and instructions on your website for us to be able to print out, great idea

Just made this tonight and it was really good. Never going back to boxed hamburger helper. I didn’t even have the Dijon mustard or pepper flakes. I also was unable to put my pan in the oven so I just shredded mozzarella on top and let it melt on low and it still came out wonderful! Thanks for the recipe!

[@MrMakeItHappen]

I was looking for a spaghetti and meatball recipe and your video came up first. I was intrigued so I watched it and needless to say I went out and bought the ingredients to make it tonight. Soo much flavor packed in there and the beef broth was an incredible taste added to it. Everything pairs so well and the sun dried tomatoes... I could go on. Great video and I will keep this recipe and pass it on.

[@ozellawilson4965]
