Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/2 white onion finely diced
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 cans tomato sauce 8 oz each
- 1 tsp sugar
- 8 oz sour cream
- 1 pkg egg noodles 12 oz
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 9X13 casserole pan with a non-stick cooking spray.
- Cook the noodles based on the package instructions to al dente. You want the noodles to still be firm.
- Then brown the beef with the diced onion in a large skillet over medium high heat until the beef is browned. Drain off any of the excess grease.
- Then stir in the garlic, salt, pepper, tomato sauce and sugar. Simmer on low for 10-15 minutes so that the flavors can combine. Then remove the pan from the heat and allow the beef to come to room temperature.
- Stir in the sour cream until combined. Then gently stir in the egg noodles and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, being careful not to break the noodles.
- Pour the mixture into the casserole pan, top with the remaining shredded cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes until bubbly and the cheese has melted and the top of the casserole is browned slightly.
- Let the casserole sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Then it’s ready to serve and enjoy!

Notes
- Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- You can use greek yogurt instead of sour cream if you prefer.
- Also, I generally use cheddar cheese in this recipe but any of your favorite types of cheese would be delicious in this casserole.
