ONE-POT CHEESEBURGER MACARONI



One-Pot Cheeseburger Macaroni image

Nostalgic for the boxed cheeseburger macaroni dinner from your childhood? Then whip up this homemade version of Hamburger Helper that's just as satisfying as the classic. The recipe is super quick and budget-friendly, leaning on pantry ingredients you probably already have on hand. We use shredded Cheddar to make the dish extra cheesy and finish with chopped parsley for a fresh bite. Perhaps best of all: Everything cooks in one pot, even the pasta!

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes, optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound ground beef, 80/20
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
5 cups low-sodium chicken stock or broth
10 ounces elbow macaroni
2 cups shredded Cheddar, about 8 ounces
4 ounces cream cheese
1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves and tender stems, chopped, plus more for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened 6 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the chili powder, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes (if using), 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and stir to combine. Add the beef and break it up into small pieces with a large spoon; cook, stirring occasionally, until beef is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and Dijon until combined. Pour in the chicken stock and 1 teaspoon salt, stir to combine and bring to a boil, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the elbow macaroni and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and the pasta is al dente, 9 to 11 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Cheddar and cream cheese until smooth. Fold in the parsley. Garnish with more parsley, if desired.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
