Ingredients

• 12 ounces egg noodles
• 16 ounces frozen hash browns
• 10.5 ounces cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well-combined and remove from heat.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked egg noodles, frozen hash browns, and the beef mixture. Mix until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish. Spread it out evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
