Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 1 box of Hamburger Helper® Cheese Macaroni
  • 1 tbsp Tandoori Masala (available in Indian/Asian grocery stores)
  • 1 cup frozen peas & carrots, chopped
  • salt and pepper - to taste
Directions
  1. Cook the macaroni per packaged instructions, with enough water and a pinch of salt. Keep them al dente if you like, we prefer a bit over-cooked pasta in our home.
  2. Cook the sauce using the mix and add the Tandoori masala to it. Boil until nice and thick.
  3. In another pan, I drizzled some olive oil, and added a handful of chopped veggies - some carrots, peas, and scallions, and gave them a quick stir to soften them up. Then cover it with a lid and let them cook for a while.
  4. Finally, add the pasta to the sauce, mix in the veggies, and give it all a stir! Remove from heat, let it cool down a bit, then pour it into a service dish or bowl.
  5. Check for salt and pepper, and add more if needed. Serve warm.
