I couldn’t resist? I apologize if the song is now stuck in your head.
Since we have been sick, I have been all about simple cooking and quick dinners. I have had this recipe in my “to be tried” pile for quite some time, and it seemed like the perfect meal for this busy time of year.
Unfortunately, I can’t add this one to the Aldi Queen blog. It contains two non-Aldi ingredients- shell pasta (which could be subbed with a rotini or elbow mac from Aldi) and a can of cheese soup (currently not available at our Aldi).
Regardless, this is a quick and easy pantry meal. It is like Hamburger Helper, but definitely has more of a distinct flavor than those flavor pouches that come in a box.
The best part about this dish…only one pan to clean up! That is why skillet dinners get two thumbs up in our house.
Enjoy a stress-free night of cooking!
Cheeseburger Pasta
1 lb ground beef
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can beef broth
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup ketchup
Brown the ground beef. Add all other ingredients and heat to a boil. Cook over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes or until done, stirring often. (Amy’s Note: This took a little over fifteen minutes for me, uncovered)






Sounds good…and thanks a lot, now I’ve got Buffet stuck in my head all night long!

I love this…….so do all of my men (hubby and 21 month old twins). I make it at least once every 2 weeks! Great recipe Amy!

No one finds using Ketchup in this recipe questionable from a health standpoint? It’s laden with sugar. What about substituting your favorite pasta sauce or a couple of cans of tomato paste? I made it with tomato paste and other than needing to have additional salt added it was good and really easy to prepare. I just can’t justify feeding anyone something laden with Ketchup.
