How to Make Ground Beef Casserole
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned and crumbly. Drain excess grease.
- Stir in garlic salt, salt, and tomato sauce. Mix until well combined, then simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and cover.
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles until al dente, then drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
- In a mixing bowl, combine diced onion, sour cream, and cream cheese until smooth.
- Layer half of the noodles in the bottom of the casserole dish. Top with half of the sour cream mixture, then half of the beef mixture. Repeat layers.
- Sprinkle the top generously with Cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven, serve warm, and enjoy!
