If you grew up in the \u201980s and \u201990s, I bet you ate a lot of Hamburger Helper. It was definitely one of those weeknight dinners that our moms loved because it was so easy.<\/p>\n

And honestly, us kids loved it, too.<\/p>\n

I can still get down with a box of Cheeseburger Helper or even Tuna Helper. But I also know that I can make it myself in about the same amount of time and that it\u2019ll taste even better than the boxed stuff.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s something pretty satisfying about remaking one of your childhood favorites and introducing it to your kids.<\/p>\n

Easy homemade cheeseburger helper<\/h2>\n

I know I don\u2019t need to explain to any parents reading this why I love easy\u00a0dinner recipes<\/a>\u00a0so much. And when you\u2019ve got a husband like mine that\u2019s a super picky eater, it\u2019s an even bigger win when I can come up with easy recipes that everyone will eat.<\/p>\n

We eat a lot of\u00a0ritz cracker chicken<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0ham and cheese sliders<\/a>\u00a0around here. And thankfully everyone loves this homemade cheeseburger helper, too.<\/p>\n

This recipe has everything you loved about the boxed version: ground beef and elbow macaroni in a tomato-based sauce, finished with plenty of cheddar cheese. But the thing about making it at home is that we can make it even more flavorful \u2013 and you get to control exactly what goes in it.<\/p>\n

From start to finish, this recipe will take you about 35 minutes to make. That\u2019s not much longer than it takes to make the boxed stuff! And the extra few minutes will be well worth it, I promise.<\/p>\n

Plus, it\u2019s a one-pot meal! Easy cleanup is always a win over here \u2013 it\u2019s why we love recipes like\u00a0one-pot spaghetti<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0one-pot mac and cheese<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n
