# Ingredients:

→ Pasta

01 - 12 ounce bag medium egg noodles (approximately 6 1/2 cups cooked)

→ Meat

02 - 1 pound ground beef

→ Sauces and Dairy

03 - 10.75 ounce can tomato soup
04 - 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup
05 - 1 cup milk
06 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ Seasonings

07 - 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
08 - 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
09 - 2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
10 - Salt and pepper to taste

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
02 - Boil the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
03 - In a large skillet, brown and crumble the ground beef over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then drain excess fat.
04 - In a large mixing bowl, stir together tomato soup, cream of mushroom soup, milk, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, dried onion flakes, and salt and pepper to taste.
05 - Add the cooked egg noodles and cooked ground beef to the soup mixture. Stir gently until ingredients are evenly combined.
06 - Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes. If the top begins to dry out or brown excessively, cover loosely with aluminum foil and continue baking until done.
07 - Once baked, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top. Serve warm, ideally with garlic bread and a fresh salad.

# Notes:

01 - To prevent the casserole from drying, cover with foil if browning too quickly during baking.
