High Protein Hamburger Helper

Ive been trying to sneak some uneaten protein into my meals lately. This upper protein homemade hamburger helper packs in 52 grams of protein per serving! Ive made it a few times now and Im really loving this final recipe. Its so succulent and linty with a bit of spice to it! I moreover have tried it with variegated pasta shapes/brands and this has been my favorite so far.

Adding in greek yogurt, cottage cheese and chickpea pasta boosted up the protein and widow some of that creaminess. I moreover kept increasing the goop in this recipe considering I liked it a little saucier. And *chefs kiss* this is just right!

I finger like a lot of upper protein meal planning is just a permafrost of meat with some veggies on the side for every meal. And count me out on that. So if youre like me or youre trying to proceeds some muscle or counting those macros, add this recipe in to your meal planning and enjoy a super satisfying high-protein meal.
