Buy two boxes of macaroni and cheese and prepare as box instructs. THEN add ground beef and tomato sauce...it's MUCH tastier this way.

Rating 2 stars as is- very bland. I doctored it up a little w/ others' suggestions like garlic powder, Italian seasoning etc. It was a 3 stars at best w/ added spices. I will not make it again, just not my type of food.

This was a very easy and quick meal. I did add a little more to it which was an onion,minced garlic clove, garlic powder, 3 dabs of tabasco, and topped it off with cheddar cheese.

I enjoyed this recipe. My 2 year old twins didn't like it but I'm sure they will as they get older.

this is a very easy and quick recipe! it needs a lot of additions to give it more flavor. i made the recipe as written except for the tomato juice. i added a can of diced tomatoes with the juice. i also spiced it with salt, pepper, garlic, oregano and basil. it was sooo good!

I added a few shakes of garlic powder and oregano. The cheese is what makes this a 4 and not a 3.

Very good. I dressed it up with extra marinara sauce that I had on hand. Also, big tomato fan so I added a can of diced tomatoes. Added garlic powder.

This was like a homemade hamburger helper except a lot less salty and tastier. It was really easy to make.

This is one of my favorite recipe....quick & easy! My husband hates pasta and he request for me to make this every now & then. I've also made this for my friends and they all love it & request for it whenever we have potluck dinners. I do marinate the beef with some seasoning for more taste & add chilli paste for a bit of a kick!

My two children and I loved this meal in a pan. I did add some taco seasoning as my children love Mexican food. It was great! Definately a keeper.

Everyone should try recipes to there liking before making changes. As is we did not care for this, I added onion and green pepper to hamburger along with a little garlic and sauteed, and in place of the juice I added two cans of rotel tomatoes. Turned out pretty good, thanks for the post.

We love this, although I omit the corn because my family is picky (I like it better with the corn, though.) Fast, easy, and economical alternative to the boxed "Helpers" on busy days.

Bland... Not much taste. Maybe it would be better with some spices, or with cheddar cheese, but made exactly as the recipe stated it was bland. My 5 yr old ate it though.....

This was a good recipe to feed picky kids. They ate it up - to my surprise! The adults in my house found it rather bland and boring, though.

This was ok. The only modification that I made is that I added about a cup of cheddar on top of what the recipe called for. Even with that, we could hardly taste the cheese. My kids didn't really like it, which surprised me as this is kind of a kid friendly dish. My husband was indifferent. I think I'll only make it again if in a pinch as it was rather fast and easy to put together with staple ingredients.
