During the busy week, we love to make Mom’s Homemade Hamburger Helper. It’s easy to make, macro-friendly, and requires very few ingredients. This recipe will make four portions, but you can double it to feed more or have extra for leftovers. You can use any pasta variation that you or your family prefer. We like to serve Mom’s Homemade Hamburger Helper in a bowl and topped with fresh, cracked black pepper.
Chocolate Makadamia Nut Cake

Chocolate Makadamia Nut Cake

This Chocolate Makadamia Nut Cake is my modified version of a Pillsbury Bake-Off winner from over 25 years ago. It’s rich, moist, and delicious as well as easy to make. This version is lower in fat than a comparable chocolate cake due to a can of pears replacing a portion of the fat.
