One-Pot Vegan Hamburger Helper
This One-Pot Vegan Hamburger Helper is 100 times tastier (and healthier) than the classic boxed dinner. Made with lentils for plenty of fiber and protein.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 yellow onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic diced
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- salt & pepper to taste
- 12 oz cooked lentils
- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- 8 oz macaroni dry
- 3 cups vegan beef broth*
- 2-4 tbsp vegan cream cheese I used chive flavored
- green onion for topping
- hot sauce optional
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a stock pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Stir to coat evenly and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until onions are tender.
- Add cooked lentils and tomato paste to the pot and stir to combine. Add broth and macaroni to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling, uncover and cook until the liquid has been absorbed and the macaroni is cooked (approx. 10-12 minutes). Stir frequently so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom.
- Before serving, add vegan cream cheese to the pot and stir to combine.
- Serve while hot, topped with green onion and hot sauce.
