Tips & Techniques

  • High Altitude (3500-6500 ft)

    Simmer about 14 minutes.

  • Health Twist

    The fat content of ground beef depends on the cut of meat it came from. Regular ground beef—made from less-expensive cuts—contains up to 30 percent fat. Moderately priced ground chuck contains just enough fat to give it flavor and make it juicy. The leanest (around 5 percent fat) is the most expensive and is made from round and sirloin cuts.

  • Substitution

    Of course you can use French-fried onions instead of the seasoned croutons!

Ingredients

  • 1  pound lean ground beef
  • 1  package Hamburger Helper® beef pasta
  • 3 2/3  cups hot water
  • 2  cups Green Giant® Valley Fresh Steamers™ frozen cut green beans
  • 1/4  cup grated Parmesan cheese, if desired

Directions

  1. 1Brown beef in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally; drain.
  2. 2Stir in uncooked Pasta, Sauce Mix, hot water and beans. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; cover and simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender.
  3. 3Remove from heat; cover and let stand about 5 minutes or until sauce is as thick as you'd like, (sauce will thicken as it stands). Sprinkle with cheese.
