Hamburger Helper is known for its one-pan meals, from Cheeseburger Macaroni to Beef Stroganoff to Cheesy Italian Shells. Now the brand has stepped into the breakfast lane with a lineup of cups and box options that are quick to heat and easy to take on the go.
These new offerings combine hearty hashbrowns with classic breakfast flavors. You can choose between Southwest spices, black pepper gravy, or a cheesy base you can top with sausage, peppers, or eggs. Breakfast feels more savory than ever.
Morning Comfort in a Box or Cup
The Cheesy Hashbrown boxed meal delivers that gooey, melty cheese sauce Hamburger Helper is known for. It’s a simple base on its own, but it also works as a blank canvas for add-ins. Sausage, bell peppers, eggs, spinach, or even hot sauce can turn it into a custom breakfast skillet.
The Farmhouse Hashbrowns lean on bell pepper and onion seasoning for a warm, comforting flavor. They already taste like something you’d get at a diner, but adding mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, or fresh spinach takes them up a notch.
If you want something indulgent, the Sausage Hashbrown with black pepper gravy seasoning is the one to grab. It has that rich, gravy-smothered taste with just a hint of spice. Add fresh herbs like sage or thyme, and you’ve got a hearty meal that feels home-cooked.
For heat lovers, the Southwest Style Hashbrowns bring a Tex-Mex punch with bold seasoning. Top it with jalapeños, onions, and a fried or scrambled egg, and it feels more like a restaurant-style breakfast than a box meal.
If you’re in a rush in the morning, the brand has microwavable cups, too. Options include Cheesy Hashbrowns and Hashbrowns and Gravy, both featuring real sausage right in the cup. Just pop one in the microwave, and breakfast is handled in minutes.
Best of all, these aren’t limited-run options. You can find them now at Kroger and Walmart stores nationwide.

Takeout Flavors Without Takout Prices
Hamburger Helper brings more to the table than breakfast. It also rolled out its Deluxe line, designed to be an easy, affordable alternative to takeout while still delivering the comfort and flavor the brand is known for.
The Brew Pub Cheeseburger flavor features a creamy, cheesy sauce with a rich, savory profile that feels like something you’d order at a pub. Pair it with a side salad or roasted veggies, and dinner is ready without calling in an order.
The Cheesy Buffalo Mac is tangy and bold, with that unmistakable buffalo kick. Add chicken or extra cheese, and it becomes a satisfying main dish that tastes like game-day food made at home.
For something different, the Sweet and Savory Teriyaki brings that sweet-meets-salty balance that makes teriyaki so good. A splash of Sriracha or soy sauce, chopped green onions, and your favorite protein—chicken, shrimp, or tofu—turn it into a quick meal that feels closer to takeout than boxed pasta.
There’s also a Zesty Marinara, a tomato-forward option that offers a saucier, more Italian-inspired take for anyone who wants variety beyond cheese-based flavors.
Whether it’s a quick weekday breakfast or an easy family dinner, the brand continues to deliver meals that are quick, filling, and customizable. Hamburger Helper may be nostalgic, but it’s not stuck in the past. It’s another way to get a meal on the table without overthinking it.
