Rate/Review Recipe
1 pound lean ground beef
2 cups hot water
1 1/3 cups milk
1 package Hamburger Helper® cheeseburger macaroni
5 cups slightly crushed tortilla chips
1 1/4 cups Old El Paso® salsa (any variety)
2/3 cup sour cream
Sliced ripe olives, if desired
Green onion, sliced, if desired
1. Cook beef in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain.
2. Stir in hot water, milk, uncooked Pasta and Sauce Mix. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally.
3. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 13 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender. Remove from heat and uncover (sauce will thicken as it stands).
4. Arrange 1 cup tortilla chips on each of 5 serving plates. Spoon about 1 cup beef mixture over tortilla chips on each plate. Top each with 1/4 cup salsa and about 2 tablespoons sour cream. Sprinkle with olives and onions.
High Altitude (3500-6500 ft) Use 1 1/2 cups milk. Simmer about 17 minutes.
