Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef Juicy and flavorful
  • 1 medium onion, chopped Adds sweetness and flavor
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced For sweetness
  • 1 cup celery, sliced For crunch
  • 1 cup frozen peas For color and sweetness
  • 2 cups cooked egg noodles Main base of the casserole
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10.5 oz) Creamy base
  • ½ cup milk To thin the mixture
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided For cheesiness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Once the beef is cooked through, add the carrots, celery, and peas. Cook for a few more minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
  2. Stir in the cooked egg noodles, cream of mushroom soup, and milk. Add half of the shredded cheddar cheese and mix well until everything is creamy and blended.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top.
  4. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
  5. Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

This casserole is versatile; substitute beef for chicken, turkey, or sausage, or make it vegetarian by using mushrooms or lentils. Prepare it the night before and refrigerate for convenience.
