# Ingredients:

→ The Hearty Foundation

01 - 1 tbsp olive oil
02 - 1 lb lean ground beef (85/15)
03 - 1 medium yellow onion, diced
04 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

→ The Rich & Tangy Sauce

05 - 1 (15 oz) can crushed tomatoes
06 - 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
07 - 1/2 cup beef broth
08 - 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
09 - 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
10 - 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
11 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
12 - Salt to taste

→ The Comfort Core

13 - 8 oz wide egg noodles, uncooked
14 - 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream

→ The Golden Topping & Garnish

15 - 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
16 - 1/4 cup chopped fresh green onions, for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb lean ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in 1 medium yellow onion, diced, and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
02 - To the skillet, add 1 (15 oz) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce, 1/2 cup beef broth, and 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce. Season with 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and let the sauce for your Hamburger Supreme Casserole Recipe gently cook for 10 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
03 - While the sauce simmers, cook 8 oz wide egg noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain thoroughly. In a large bowl, gently toss the hot, drained noodles with 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream until evenly coated. This adds a creamy texture to your Hamburger Supreme Casserole Recipe.
04 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread half of the sour cream-coated egg noodles. Top with half of the meat sauce mixture. Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese. Repeat layers with the remaining noodles, meat sauce, and 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
05 - Cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden. This ensures a perfectly cooked Hamburger Supreme Casserole Recipe.
06 - Once baked, remove the Hamburger Supreme Casserole Recipe from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the casserole to set, making it easier to portion. Garnish generously with 1/4 cup chopped fresh green onions.

# Notes:

01 - For extra depth, brown the ground beef until slightly crispy before draining.
02 - Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
03 - Feel free to substitute ground turkey for ground beef, or use a different type of pasta like penne or ziti if egg noodles aren't available.
04 - Serve this hearty casserole with a simple green salad and some crusty bread for a complete and satisfying family meal.
