- 2 cans (15 oz. each) tomato sauce
- 1 cup sour cream

How to Make Ground Beef Casserole
Start by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned and crumbly, then drain excess grease. Stir in garlic salt, salt, and tomato sauce, mixing well. Let the mixture simmer for about 20 minutes, then remove from heat and cover.
Next, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles until al dente, drain, and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced onion, sour cream, and cream cheese until smooth.
Layer half of the noodles in the casserole dish, followed by half of the sour cream mixture and half of the beef mixture. Repeat the layers, then sprinkle generously with shredded Cheddar cheese.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve warm and enjoy this delicious, comforting meal!
Enjoy!
