How to Make Quick Italian Ground Beef Dinner
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, onion, and garlic. Cook, breaking the beef into crumbles, until the beef is browned and the onion is softened (about 8-10 minutes).
- Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese.
- Add the contents of the Hamburger Helper box, water (as directed on the box), mozzarella cheese, diced tomatoes, bell pepper, and oregano.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Add more water if needed to achieve your desired consistency.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have melded.
- While the sauce simmers, cook the noodles according to the package directions until al dente. Drain well.
- Add the cooked noodles to the beef mixture.
- Gently stir to combine.
- Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired.
