Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

Add the ground beef and the onion to a large pan and cook on medium to high heat until the beef is fully cooked. Drain the grease.

Add the milk, cream of mushroom, garlic salt, onion powder, and pepper to a medium-sized bowl. Stir until it's fully combined.

Add the milk mixture to the pan containing the beef and onions. Add the egg noodles and peas and stir.

Add everything to the baking dish and spread it around evenly.

Cover the top of the baking dish with foil and put it in the oven for 25 minutes.

After 25 minutes, remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle cheese over the top.

Put the casserole back in the oven, uncovered, for 5-8 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Noodle Texture Magic 🍝
Slightly undercook the egg noodles before adding to the casserole, as they'll continue cooking in the sauce and prevent becoming mushy.
Cheese Melting Technique 🧀
Grate the cheddar cheese fresh and mix half into the sauce, then sprinkle the remaining on top for a perfect golden-brown crust.
Flavor Layering Hack 🌶️
Toast the onion powder and garlic salt in the pan with the ground beef to intensify their aromatics and deepen the overall flavor profile.
Creamy Sauce Consistency 🥄
Whisk the cream of mushroom soup and milk thoroughly to eliminate lumps and ensure a smooth, velvety sauce that coats every ingredient evenly.
Frozen Pea Pro Tip 🥦
Add frozen peas directly from the freezer in the last 5 minutes of baking to maintain their bright color and prevent overcooking.
