Adult Hamburger Helper

Ok, I’d be lying if I said I never ate Hamburger Helper for an entire week when I was in college. I was so eager to start my journey as a college student, that I never really thought about how inexperienced I was in the kitchen. My Mom cooked all our meals, so I never learned past the basics. So when I was a little freshman living in a dorm room with no kitchen, I relied on quick meals that were cheap, fast, and easy! Consider this my healthier take on this family favorite! The elbow pasta is from one of my newly discovered brands, Banza, and it’s made from chickpeas, so eat all the pasta you want absolutely guilt-free! Oh and did I mention that it’s gluten free? Yum!
