MVP Cheeseburger Macaroni Recipe
MVP Cheeseburger Macaroni
Who can not love the convenience of Hamburger Helper. Well this is not hamburger helper but was developed by Heinz Kitchens.
I first picked up this recipe when searching for recipes on the Heinz Field (Pittsburgh, PA) web site. It is a simple one pot dish similar to a hamburger helper.
Another easy recipe for a great food manufacture. I do like use chopped onions here and fry them with the ground beef. Better than onion powder any day.
