Ingredients :

  • 8 oz egg noodles (or any pasta you prefer)
    • 1 lb ground beef
    • 1 small onion, finely chopped
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
    • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
    • 1/2 cup sour cream
    • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    • Salt and pepper, to taste
    • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions : 

  1. 1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.

    2. Cook the Pasta:
    • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    3. Cook the Beef Mixture:
    • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and fully cooked. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
    • Stir in the tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.

    4. Make the Creamy Layer:
    • In a small bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream until well combined.

    5. Assemble the Casserole:
    • Spread half of the cooked noodles in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
    • Layer half of the beef mixture on top of the noodles.
    • Spread half of the creamy soup mixture over the beef.
    • Repeat the layers with the remaining noodles, beef mixture, and creamy soup mixture.
    • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly on top.

    6. Bake:
    • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    7. Serve:
    • Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Pair it with a simple salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.

    This dish is comforting, simple, and a real hit for dinner. Would you try adding extra veggies or keep it classic?
