This recipe is a very inexpensive meal that makes super creamy hamburger helper. I like hamburger helper but it always dries out too fast. This recipe doesn't. Even the next day it stays super creamy!

Time 15m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb hamburger, browned
1 cup milk
2 cups water
3 (7 1/4 ounce) packages Kraft macaroni and cheese (for 2 of the macaroni & cheese boxes use only the cheese mix & save the macaroni for soup or somethi)
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
4 ounces cream cheese, cubed
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (to taste)

Steps:

  • Brown the hamburger in a dutch oven or 12 inch skillet. When browned, drain off fat. Rinse the hamburger, to make it lower in fat, if desired. It doesn't hurt the taste at all.
  • Add the milk, butter, water, cheese package mixes, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add macaroni.
  • Cover and reduce heat to low and simmer for about 7 minutes or until the macaroni is tender.
  • Add garlic powder and season with salt to your taste.
  • Add the cubed cream cheese and stir until melted and blended.
  • Serve immediately. Yummy.
