🍲 Longhorn Steakhouse Ground Beef Casserole

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus more for topping)
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• 8 oz egg noodles (or pasta of your choice)
• 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
• Optional: chopped green onions or parsley for garnish

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Cook the Pasta:
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the egg noodles until just al dente. Drain and set aside.

3. Brown the Beef:
In a large skillet, heat butter or oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef, onion, and garlic, cooking until the beef is browned and the onion is soft. Drain any excess fat.

4. Mix the Sauce:
Reduce the heat and stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

5. Combine Everything:
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and stir until all ingredients are evenly coated in the sauce.

6. Bake the Casserole:
Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish. Sprinkle a generous layer of cheddar cheese on top.

Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown on top.

7. Serve and Enjoy:
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and garnish with parsley or green onions if desired. Serve with a side salad or garlic bread for the perfect comfort meal.

🌟 Tips & Variations:

• Make it spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or diced jalapeños.
• Add veggies: Stir in frozen peas, corn, or sautéed mushrooms for extra flavor.
• Swap the protein: Try ground turkey or Italian sausage for a new twist.
• Make ahead: Assemble the casserole up to a day before and refrigerate. Just bake when ready to serve.
