Homemade Philly Cheesesteak Hamburger Helper

1 pound ground beef

1 large sweet onion, diced

1 large green bell pepper, diced

8 ounces brown mushrooms, chopped

2 tsp. ketchup

1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp. Kosher salt

1 tsp. fresh ground black pepper

4 C. beef or chicken broth

8 ounces elbow macaroni

4 ounces provolone cheese slices, chopped (or 4 ounces shredded)

2 tsp. minced parsley, for garnish

Method

 

Add the ground beef to a large deep skillet over medium high heat. Cook until a brown crust appears before breaking the beef apart. Sauté until no longer pink. Add the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring periodically, until the vegetables are soft and the mushrooms have released their liquid. Add the broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper to the pan and stir to combine. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then add macaroni. Cover with a tight fitting lid and cook for 5-7 minutes or until noodles are just barely al dente (do not overcook), stirring once to make sure nothing is sticking. Remove cover, reduce heat to medium low and let simmer for another 5 minutes to thicken before serving. Turn off the heat, add in the provolone cheese and stir until melted and well combined. Garnish with minced parsley. Serve.
