This Sour Cream Beef Noodle Casserole is a comforting and hearty dish combining tender egg noodles, savory ground beef, and a creamy mixture of sour cream and mushroom soup, all topped with melted cheddar cheese. Perfect for an easy weeknight dinner that the whole family will love.

Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Dairy

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Pasta

  • 8 ounces egg noodles

Canned Goods

  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (approx. 10.5 oz)

Vegetables and Seasonings

  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Cook Noodles: Boil the egg noodles according to the package instructions until tender, then drain them thoroughly.
  3. Brown Beef and Onions: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the beef is no longer pink and the onions are soft and translucent, draining any excess fat.
  4. Combine Creamy Mixture: Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper into the beef and onion mixture, mixing until well combined.
  5. Mix Noodles and Beef Mixture: Add the drained egg noodles to the skillet and gently fold them into the beef mixture until everything is evenly coated.
  6. Assemble Casserole: Transfer the noodle and beef mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden on top.

Notes

  • For a lower fat version, use lean ground beef and reduced-fat sour cream and cheese.
  • Adding chopped mushrooms or bell peppers can enhance flavor and nutrition.
  • If cream of mushroom soup is unavailable, a homemade white sauce can be substituted.
  • Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving to set and cool slightly.
