Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef 80/20 blend recommended
  • 12 oz wide egg noodles
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 10.5 oz condensed cream of mushroom soup 1 can
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided

Equipment

  • 1 9x13 inch baking dish
  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 1 Large pot

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook the egg noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
  3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until the beef is browned and the onion is soft. Drain off any excess fat.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  5. Add the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the skillet. Stir until everything is combined and heated through.
  6. Add the drained noodles to the skillet and gently stir to coat them completely in the sauce.
  7. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is hot and bubbly and the cheese is melted and lightly browned.
  9. Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a crunchy topping: Mix the cheese with 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs or crushed crackers before sprinkling over the casserole.
Make-ahead tip: Assemble the casserole without baking, cover tightly, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. You may need to add 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
