Ingredients

• 12 oz egg noodles
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp butter (for greasing the baking dish)
• 2 tbsp chopped parsley (for garnish, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess grease.

Step 4

Add the diced onion to the skillet with the ground beef and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the onions soften. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss to coat evenly in the creamy sauce.

Step 7

Transfer the beef and noodle mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly.

Step 8

Top the casserole with shredded cheddar cheese, spreading it in an even layer.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a golden top, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and enjoy!
