Ingredients
Method
Preheat & Brown the Beef
- Kickstart your oven to a cozy 350°F.
- Over a medium-high flame, cook the ground beef in a skillet until fully browned. Kiss goodbye to any excess grease.
Infuse Flavor & Make the Sauce
- Toss in your minced garlic and Italian seasoning into the skillet, letting them mingle with the beef for about 30 seconds.
- Add a splash of sweetness with sugar and then pour in the tomato sauce. Stir in some salt and pepper for seasoning. Let this simmer for a quick 3-5 minutes.
The Creamy Dream Team
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Noodle Time!
- Boil your egg noodles until they reach your preferred level of doneness, then drain them thoroughly.
Layering Like a Pro
- Grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and grease it up.
- Start layering by placing half of your drained egg noodles at the bottom.
- Next, spread a layer of your cream cheese mixture over the noodles.
- On top of that, add a layer of your meaty, saucy concoction.
- Duplicate these layers once more: noodles, cream, and meat.
Cheesy Finish & Baking
- Crown your casserole with a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
- Pop the baking dish into the oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
