Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces wide egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 8 ounces white button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 14 ounces canned diced tomatoes (with juices)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for another 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and tender.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it into small crumbles with a spoon. Drain any excess fat if needed.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste, beef broth, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes, allowing flavors to meld together.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until it is fully incorporated into the sauce.
Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss until everything is well combined.
Transfer the noodle mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
