A comforting and flavorful dish combining egg noodles, a savory meat sauce, and creamy cheese layers, perfect for a cozy family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for your dish.
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium-high heat until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent. Drain any excess fat.
Stir frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Stir in the tomato-basil pasta sauce, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Avoid overcooking the noodles as they will continue to cook in the oven.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked noodles, ricotta cheese, sour cream, and salt. Mix until well blended.
Ensure the noodles are evenly coated for a creamy texture.
In a greased baking dish, layer half of the noodle mixture, followed by half of the meat sauce. Repeat the layers.
Press down gently to create even layers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
The cheese should be melted and slightly golden.
Let the dish stand for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Cheesy Egg Noodle Bake!
Letting it rest helps the layers set and makes serving easier.
