Have a family with picky eaters? This One Pot Hamburger helper is an easy and quick family dinner that everyone will love! A bowl filled with cheesy macaroni and chunks of meat that tastes better than the box version? Yes please!

I love creating recipes that are specifically for children. It can be hard to make a meal they like and a parent getting tired of eating the same thing multiple times in a week. As I grew up and hear the stories of parents, there is one dish that children won’t say no to and I can agree: macaroni and cheese.

Children go crazy for it!

I remember as a child that my Dad loved making those boxed hamburger helper meals and as a children, my sisters and I loved eating it. Sometimes he would get hamburger helper, sometimes he would just add cooked meat into boxed macaroni and cheese. Do other Dad’s do that?

I completely forgot those helper meals existed until a few months ago. I loved it as a kid but there can be a lot of sugar and sodium added. I am very aware of the amount of sodium and sugar add into boxed meals and that is one big reason why I like making my own versions at home.

Because I can control the salt intake. I want my household to enjoy a meal but in a healthier approached. This dish is not crazy healthy but still in that direction. And it tastes just like the boxed version!

I really hope you enjoy this! So, try this out and don’t forget to tag me on Instagram or Facebook. I would love to see your creation!
