Ingredients
Scale
Gathering your ingredients is the first step to culinary magic. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups egg noodles
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
If you’re out of any of these, don’t fret. Swap the ground beef for turkey, or use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Cooking should be flexible, just like life with kids!
Instructions
Let’s bring this cozy dish to life in a few simple steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain excess fat.
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the beef and sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Toss in the sliced mushrooms, cooking until they’re soft, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente and drain.
- In a large bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in the beef mixture and noodles.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, then transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
Remember, cooking is about the journey. Let your kids help with mixing or sprinkling cheese; the mess is part of the fun!
