Hamburger Stroganoff

Hamburger Helper is always a quick easy meal in our home. I thought tonight I would try to cook a homemade version. I thought that cheesier flavor made a big difference in the taste!

 

This recipe takes the same amount of time as buying the box version, but you can make it healthier and more flavorful.  You can replace the noodles and flour with wheat versions.
