Easy Better For You One Pot Hamburger Helper today @foodbymaria

👩🏻‍🍳Comment ‘recipe’ below if you want the recipe for my Hamburger Helper!! It will be sent directly to your DM’s or tap the link in my bio to access our website. 👩🏻‍🍳

This might just be the easiest one-pot dinner out there—and not only is it simple, it’s downright delicious and a little nostalgic, too. It really needs no introduction… we’re talking about Hamburger Helper—an iconic dish from many people’s childhoods.

(Confession: it wasn’t part of mine.)

But ever since we developed this version, it’s been on repeat in my kitchen.

What makes it special? Think: generous amounts of grated zucchini for a fiber boost, creamy cottage cheese, high-protein bone broth, and perfectly cooked elbow pasta, all tied together with rich tomato paste and crushed tomatoes from @delallofoods. They always deliver the highest quality ingredients, which makes this comforting classic feel like something you’d find on a 5-star menu. #dellalopartner

P.S. If you want to skip the added fiber or cottage cheese, that’s totally fine—not every meal needs to scream GYM BRO.

Something magical happens when you stuffed onions with beef, rice and fresh herbs. They become so juicy, and sweet and the rice soaks up every bit of flavour making this dish an absolute flavor explosion. It’s the perfect Sunday dinner idea and is a genius use of peak-season onions! Make this for your next gathering, I guarantee they will be raving about this dish all summer long.

‼️ Not all Extra Virgin Olive Oils are created equal.

Most aren’t cold-pressed, early-harvest, or truly high quality.
That’s why I created JUICE. 🫒

It’s bold, fresh, and packed with flavour, made for when quality really counts.

Whether you’re gifting a loved one or looking to impress a foodie in your life.

My Olive is the perfect choice.
