Description

Amish Country Casserole is a hearty and comforting baked dish featuring ground beef, tender egg noodles, and a creamy tomato mushroom sauce topped with melted cheddar cheese. This simple yet satisfying casserole is ideal for family dinners and can be easily customized with added vegetables.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cups egg noodles, cooked
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup tomato soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole evenly.
  2. Cook Noodles: Prepare the egg noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. Brown Beef and Onion: In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until the beef is fully browned and the onion is softened. Drain any excess fat to reduce greasiness.
  4. Make Sauce Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, tomato soup, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked egg noodles and browned beef and onion mixture into the bowl with the sauce. Stir well to evenly coat all components.
  6. Assemble Casserole: Grease a baking dish lightly, then transfer the noodle and beef mixture into the dish, spreading it out evenly.
  7. Add Cheese Topping: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole for a rich, melty finish.
  8. Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes until bubbly and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly for a few minutes before serving to let it set and to avoid burns.

Notes

  • For added nutrition and flavor, mix in peas or corn before baking.
  • Leftover casserole reheats well and makes a convenient next-day meal.
  • You can substitute cream of mushroom soup with cream of chicken soup if preferred.
  • Using sharp cheddar cheese enhances the richness and flavor.
