Creamy Hamburger Macaroni/ W Progresso Recipe Starters Portabell

I don't care for Hamburger Helper, but I liked the idea, and when Progresso came out with the New Recipe Starters I created this recipe using the Portabello Mushroom Flavor, it is very creamy and leftovers heat up very well. My husband loves this dish and he likes to add some extra chopped raw onions to his. This is a great original dish created by me.
