A creamy, one-pot pasta dish that combines the flavors of a cheeseburger with rich alfredo sauce. Perfect for a quick and family-friendly weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 15 ounces uncooked pasta (like penne or rotini)
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: chopped pickles, diced tomatoes, lettuce

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet or pot, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the uncooked pasta and beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked through and most of the liquid has been absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Cook, stirring, until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is creamy.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with your favorite cheeseburger toppings if desired.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce when browning the beef.
  • If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little more beef broth or cream to reach your desired consistency.
  • This dish is a great base for meal planning, offering a satisfying meal without the need for separate meal delivery companies.
