Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 4 cups chopped cabbage
  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 1 cup sour cream (room temperature)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Brown the Ground Beef: Start by heating a skillet over medium heat and brown the ground beef until fully cooked and crumbled. Drain any excess fat to prevent the casserole from becoming greasy.
  2. Sauté Onions and Cabbage: In the same skillet, sauté the diced onions until translucent. Then add the chopped cabbage and cook until tender but still slightly crisp to retain texture and sweetness.
  3. Cook the Egg Noodles: While the vegetables cook, boil the egg noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and toss the noodles with butter for added flavor and a silky finish.
  4. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gently mix together the cooked ground beef, sautéed onions and cabbage, buttered noodles, and sour cream. Season the mixture with salt and pepper, ensuring an even balance of flavors.
  5. Layer and Add Cheese: Transfer the combined mixture to a greased casserole dish. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top to create a golden, bubbly crust during baking.
  6. Bake Until Golden: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through.

Notes

  • Drain meat well to avoid excess grease in the casserole.
  • Do not overcook cabbage; keep it tender-crisp for best texture.
  • Use room temperature sour cream to prevent curdling and ensure smooth blending.
  • Toss noodles in butter to add richness and prevent sticking.
  • Let the casserole rest a few minutes after baking for easier slicing and serving.
