Homemade Hamburger Helper Lasagna
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 2 cups milk
- 2 1/2 cups dry Mafalda pasta or broken up lasagna noodles
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Preparation
- In a high-sided skillet, brown ground beef on medium-high heat until cooked through. Drain fat if needed.
- To the same skillet, stir in tomato paste, chicken stock, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, basil, sugar, and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and let liquid reduce by about half, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and briefly remove pan from heat. Stir in pasta, along with the milk.
- Return to burner, cover, and cook over low heat until pasta is al dente, about 10 minutes. Do not increase heat over medium-low as milk will curdle.
- Remove skillet from heat, stir in mozzarella, and cover. Let rest off heat until cheese has melted. Enjoy!
