Description

This is super quick and easy one-skillet meal that puts Hamburger Helper out of business! I usually make this on nights when I don’t have too much time to cook.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Ground Beef
  • 2 cans (15 Oz. Size) Tomato Sauce
  • 2 cans Water (fill The Two Empty Cans Of Tomato Sauce With Water)
  • 1 pound Penne Pasta Noodles (uncooked)
  • 2 cups Kraft 2% Italian 4 Cheese Blend
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder, Or To Taste
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder, Or To Taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning, Or To Taste
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and drain the fat. Add the tomato sauce, two cans of water, herbs, salt and pepper, and uncooked pasta. Bring to a boil and lower to a simmer, cover and let cook (stirring on occasion). When pasta is tender and has absorbed the liquid, top with cheese. When cheese has melted, serve with salad and garlic bread!

A good, filling dish. However, it is fairly bland. Be sure to kick the spices up several notches if you like a stronger flavor.
