| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Brown ground beef and onion: In a Dutch oven, heat up your ground beef and chopped onion until the beef is no longer pink. Don’t forget to drain off any excess fat – we want all the flavor, not the grease! |
| 2 | Add cheese sauce mix: Once your beef and onion are cooked through, stir in the cheese sauce mix from your trusty Hamburger Helper package. This will add a creamy, cheesy goodness to our soup that will have you coming back for seconds! |
| 3 | Bring to a boil: Now it’s time to add the water, dried basil, salt, pepper, and diced tomatoes to the party. Bring everything to a boil, making sure to give it a good stir to incorporate all those delicious flavors. |
| 4 | Simmer: Once your soup is bubbling away, reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. This will allow all those flavors to meld together into a harmonious symphony of yum! |
| 5 | Add macaroni and vegetables: Now comes the fun part – adding in the macaroni from your Hamburger Helper package and the Veg-All. Stir everything together, cover, and let it simmer until the pasta is tender, which should take around 15 minutes. |
| 6 | Finish with parsley: Just before serving, sprinkle in the chopped fresh parsley for a burst of freshness and color. It’s the perfect finishing touch to this hearty, comforting soup. |
Serving:
Once your Hamburger Helper Soup is ready, ladle it into bowls and get ready to dig in! This soup pairs perfectly with some crusty bread for dipping or a simple green salad on the side. So go ahead, grab a spoon, and let this cozy bowl of goodness warm you from the inside out. Enjoy! 🥄🍅
