Sour Cream Beef Noodle Casserole
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 (15 oz each) cans tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 8 oz egg noodles
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef and onion until beef is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
- Stir in tomato sauce and Italian seasoning and bring to a simmer. Let simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
- While you're making the sauce, cook egg noodles according to package directions in a large pot of salted boiling water. Drain and set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir together the sour cream and cottage cheese. Add egg noodles and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine.
- Transfer half of the egg noodle mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top with half of the meat sauce. Top with remaining egg noodle mixture, followed by remaining meat sauce.
- Top with cheese and bake until sauce is bubbly and cheese has melted, about 30 minutes.
- Let cool 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
