Ingredients
Scale
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cheddar cheese soup
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces uncooked egg noodles
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is tender. Drain off any excess grease.
Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, cheddar cheese soup, milk, water, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Add the uncooked egg noodles to the skillet and stir to coat them with the sauce.
Transfer the mixture to a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the noodles are tender.
Notes
This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Bake as directed, adding a few extra minutes if baking from cold.
For freezing, assemble the casserole but do not bake. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and then foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and bake as directed, adding 10-15 minutes to the baking time.
You can substitute other condensed soups, like cream of chicken or cream of celery, if desired.
Add a can of drained peas or corn for extra vegetables.
