Homemade Classic Hamburger Helper
This homemade version of the one-skillet classic that started with a box and a pound of ground beef is made vegetarian. Cheesy noodles and meatless veggie ground make for an easy weeknight dinner that's equal parts nostalgic and comforting. My Homemade Classic Hamburger Helper – the meatless edition – tastes better than the boxed stuff, and it’s still ready in 30 minutes or less. That makes it an ideal recipe for keeping in your back pocket, just like my mom kept the boxed stuff in the pantry.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add olive oil, onion and meatless ground. Cook until onions are translucent and meat is browned, about 7 to 10 minutes.
- Step 2
Add in tomato paste, garlic powder, chili powder, salt and pepper. Stir and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until well combined.
- Step 3
Pour in vegetable broth, stir and increase heat to bring to a boil. Once boiling, add in uncooked macaroni, stir and reduce heat to continue simmering for about 8 minutes*, or until macaroni is cooked.
- Step 4
Turn off heat, stir in shredded cheddar cheese and let sit for a few minutes to let everything come together. Spoon into bowls for serving.
