Equipment

  • 1 large skillet
  • 1 9x13 inch casserole dish
  • 1 pot for boiling noodles
  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 wooden spoon or spatula
  • 1 aluminum foil (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cups egg noodles, uncooked
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with the diced onion until the beef is no longer pink and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  • In a pot, bring water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Add the cooked ground beef and onions to the mixing bowl with the creamy mixture, followed by the cooked egg noodles. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
  • Transfer the mixture into the greased casserole dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the casserole.
  • Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving.
