Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Cook Noodles: Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain well to remove excess water.
  3. Brown Beef and Onions: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onions together until the beef is fully browned and onions are softened, stirring occasionally to break up the meat.
  4. Mix Sauce: Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper into the cooked beef and onions until well combined to create a creamy sauce.
  5. Combine Noodles and Beef Mixture: Add the drained noodles to the beef and sauce mixture, stirring thoroughly so the noodles are evenly coated.
  6. Assemble Casserole: Transfer the entire mixture into a baking dish and evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken.
  • You can add vegetables like peas or mushrooms for extra nutrition and flavor.
  • Make sure to not overcook the noodles to avoid a mushy casserole.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
  • This casserole pairs well with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables.
