When I was kid, I would start salivating when I knew my mom was cooking Hamburger Helper for dinner. Did you grow up eating this too?? It’s delicious but like most boxed foods, not necessarily the healthiest thing to feed your family.

Here’s a list of the ingredients:
Enriched Pasta (wheat flour, niacin, ferrous sulfate, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), Corn Starch, Salt, Wheat Flour, Modified Whey, Onion*, Color (caramel color, annatto extract), Yeast Extract, Potassium Chloride, Natural Flavor, Vegetable Oil (canola, soybean and/or sunflower oil), Spice, Hydrolyzed Corn Protein, Monoglycerides, Sugar, Beef Stock, Beef Fat, Silicon Dioxide (anticaking agent).*Dried

This Mushroom and Swiss Burger Casserole somehow tastes just like Hamburger Helper but made with better ingredients, as long as you’re ok to eat dairy, and it’s low carb too.
