It’s homemade version of the boxed “Hamburger Helper” we grew up with in the USA. This looks much better and richer in flavour and freshness. Home made is best. Thanks for sharing. I’m going to make this. 😊
That’s great and all but you need to remember hamburger helper was just another imitation dish as well. It was a cheaper boxed imitation stroganoff. In fact hamburger helper’s first flavor was stroganoff.
Just made this for my family with some garlic bread! Kids and husband love it! This will now become a staple in my house just because I usually have all of these ingredients on hand! Fantastic and quick !! 🎉
@@zyprexzaIf it's frozen spinach, it's watery when it defrosts. In that case, defrost first (in microwave), then squeeze out any excess water. If it's fresh, it'll wilt into the mix perfectly, doesn't add water.
Ground beef, 1lb, $2-$5 depending. Tomato sauce, 16 Oz (1 can), $1.99. Heavy cream, looks to be a cup, $1-$3 depending. Shell pasta, 1 lb, $4-$7 depending. Onion, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, flour, cheese, and beef broth are all kitchen staples so you shouldn't have to purchase. Very easy dish for under $15 and serves 4 with an easy side.
@@johnnyshags2 That why people eat that garbage meat call Grass Fed. Truth be told, that beef is only worth $1 to $1.80 per pound. The reason being is that it cost absolutely nothing to raise a grass fed cow. You put out to pasture and leave him alone for 2 years, and POOF, you are blessed with God awful tasting beef, that can’t be sold as steaks 🥩, because it’s the meat is tougher than a hillbillies leather boot !!!

@@dreeemer Nothing per se - it is just that ground chicken breast in a dish like this tends to dry out as it has a low fat content. Using all ground dark or mixed chicken meat adds fat and thus moisture and flavor. However, if you want to use ground chicken breast -by all means! Enjoy!
Definitely making this! I always have ground chuck thawed & always looking for a new recipe. Modern take of hamburger helper 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 UPDATE: So I made this 11/16 for dinner.....was probably one of the best things I've tried! So so so good! Only difference i placed mine in the oven after everything just to bake off....🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
@@noneofyourbuizness lol no one said it wasnt. In America we have things that are premade for sake of connivence and continuing on with the day. Thats not to say we dont also cook like in this video but Hamburger Helper is basically just boxed mac and cheese except its this meal boxed instead.
Girl I made this for my man’s & I and it was so yummy! It was our cheat meal of the week lol the only thing I was missing was the heavy whipping cream but I added some melted butter to my milk and it worked just fine! Super good and it will definitely make u sleepy after 😂❤️
Omg a much better version of Hamburger Helper. I'm trying this. June 2024 : this is ONE of THE best meals I've ever made! Cheap, fast, and my family LOVES it! ❤❤❤❤
Actually, she added far more cheese than she shows. What she made is just home made hamburger helper. That requires 1 1/2 to 2 cups of shredded cheese.
Hello, my grandma is sick so she couldn’t cook and I had to cook for us and I got to say this came out so good, thank you for showing us how to make this masterpiece, God bless you ❤️🙏
I didn't have tomato sauce so I used enchilada sauce. I also didn't use the spices i put taco seasoning. In also substituted Velveeta cheese and sprinkled cheddar cheese on top. I just went with what I had available. Thank you for the base idea.
you could have just cooked the beef with the onions and garlic and seasoning and then added the flour. it's literally the same process for making a shepards pie.
I made this today and it was sooooooooooooooooo goooooood!❤ The only thing I did different was I used bow tie noodles and I added some taco seasoning as well. Kinda like hamburger helper but better!

I just made this I did not have heavy cream I use cream cheese and I use Gouda cheese I did not have beef broth but I did have the jar of pace of beef broth that's good stuff waiting for my daughter come home from school definitely making this again thanks for sharing🎉
As someone who thinks if there's ground beef it's a sin not to make Bolognese, I am intrigued by this. I think I may make this but with different pasta. This is very interesting. Thank you for the inspiration!
Guy make sure you get your butcher box I only talked about it for 25% of the video which isn't that much but anyways its on sale so make sure you buy my butcher box with ground beef that's organic and remember the burger box is on sale so make sure you buy my butcher box

Someone tell @Joshuaweissman 😂
Everything’s better with butter.
It’s so hard to watch this. Because you can’t rewind
I knowwwww lol
Yes you can. Like the video, then go to liked videos on your history and you can rewind it.
Screen record then watch as slow as you want from camera roll
you can pause along the way if u can’t screen record
You can now you pause it and there should be a red thing bf you can drag it wherever you like!❤

Looks like a better Hamburger Helper. I will be trying this.
Yes, you can skip the flour :p cook a bit longer let the cream do its thing it will thicken up!
The flower still helps bind everything
Yeah if you make a roux with it; cooking the four then whisking in the fat slowly e.g. butter, oil etc.
Exactly, folks killing me with this Flour ish😠😩....lol
