Method
Brown the beef and aromatics
- Brown ground beef with diced onion and sliced mushrooms until cooked through, stirring until the meat loses its pink color and browns evenly.
Make the creamy stroganoff sauce
- Stir in beef broth, sour cream, and cream of mushroom soup until smooth, mixing until no streaks remain and the gravy turns creamy.
Combine with noodles and bake
- Fold in the cooked egg noodles until well coated, stirring just until the noodles are evenly covered.
- Spread the mixture into a greased baking dish, smoothing the top so it bakes evenly.
- Top with shredded mozzarella cheese, covering the surface completely for a melted, bubbly finish.
- Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and the cheese is melted.
Serve
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, adding a fresh green finish right as you plate the casserole.
Notes
Pro tip: use wide egg noodles so they hold the creamy sauce better than thin noodles. Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 3-4 days in a covered container; reheat in the oven or microwave until steaming hot. Freezing: yes—freeze tightly wrapped portions up to 2 months and thaw overnight before reheating. Dietary swap: use low-fat sour cream or a lactose-free sour cream to reduce fat while keeping the creamy texture.
