Ingredients for Beef Fettuccine Dinner

  • Ground Beef
  • 2 cups water
  • Lipton Beef Flavor Noodles And Sauce
  • 1 (24-ounce) jar tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • Whole Kernel Corn
  • Cheddar Cheese

How to Make Beef Fettuccine Dinner

  1. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 2 cups of water to the skillet and bring to a boil.
  3. Stir in 1 (16-ounce) package fettuccine pasta mix (containing noodles, seasonings, and dehydrated vegetables), 1 (24-ounce) jar of your favorite tomato sauce, and 1 tablespoon chili powder.
  4. Return the mixture to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the pasta is cooked through.
  6. Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of corn, drained, and 2/3 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Heat through until cheese is melted.
  7. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and serve immediately.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
