To prepare, you will typically brown ground beef in a skillet. After draining any excess fat, you add the contents of the skillet meal package along with milk and water. Stir everything together and bring it to a simmer. Cover the skillet and let it cook until the pasta is tender and the sauce has thickened, usually around 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. The result is a creamy, cheesy pasta dish reminiscent of lasagna.

Unlike traditional lasagna which requires layering noodles, sauce, and cheese and baking for a longer period, this skillet meal offers a much faster preparation.
