Happy weekend!  This week has felt like such a long week for some reason and, like always, I'm fairly behind on blog posts. Hopefully I can share one or two with you this weekend. I'm still on Noom and have seen some major changes in my weight and health since I started in April. The great thing about Noom is that you don't have to stop eating your favorite foods. I always make homemade dinners with healthier choices. This Homemade Hamburger Recipe is no different. Complement this hamburger helper with a side of garlic bread, salad, and a glass of wine. Ingredients: 1 pound ground beef  1 tbsp cornstarch 1 tbsp paprika 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1 1/2 tsp onion powder 1 tsp splenda Black pepper 2 cups hot water 1 1/2 cups fat free milk 2 cups macaroni noodles 2 cups reduced fat cheddar cheese (or you can do a combination like we did) Directions: Heat a large skillet over medium/high heat. Spray with cooking spray and add the ground beef, breaking it up and stirring about 5-7 m
