Hamburger helper, but make it healthy
This quick, low-carb, keto, gluten-free creamy BurgerFit noodles recipe will take you back to being a kid and eating hamburger helper – but a lot healthier! You can use this recipe as a base and add in other vegetables, such as sauteed mushrooms. The first time I made it, I did that and it was absolutely delicious! Other vegetables that would also go well in this recipe are sauteed onions and bell pepper, zucchini, yellow squash, and carrots. I used spaghetti squash for my noodles but this could be replaced with any type of noodle that you have whether wheat-based or gluten-free. I think it would also be good with rice or over quinoa. I simplified the recipe a bit in the video but have included additional steps in the recipe below to give it added flavor.
Even though I used the Koops’ Spicy Brown Mustard and Koops’ Original Yellow Mustard in this recipe, you can experiment with any of the Koops’ Mustards! Some other ones that I think would be great in this recipe are:
You can really use almost any of the BurgerFit burger recipes in this gluten-free creamy BurgerFit noodles recipe! If you are using the Beet BurgerFit burger recipe though and use red beets, it will most likely turn your creamy noodles into a pink color, which may not be the most appetizing look for a meal! Even though it would still taste great, I would use it in a different recipe and pick one of the other BurgerFit recipes to use in this one. A few of my favorite BurgerFit recipes to eat with the creamy noodles are:
Sometimes a classic childhood meal hits the spot, but I find there are always ways to make a healthier version of it! -Alane

Has anyone tried using vermicelli noodle for this? I have several packs in the house and I’m curious on the outcome.
Yes Vermicelli can also make a good substitute for the noodle but they tend to cook faster so consider cutting a few minutes to the overall cooking time.
