FAQS:

What substitutions could I make?

• Pasta Choice: Egg noodles are great in this recipe due to their texture and shape, but if you don’t have them on hand, you could use other pasta shapes such as fusilli, penne or farfalle.
• Ground Beef Alternative: You could substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a leaner protein.
• Sour Cream Substitute: If you don’t have sour cream, you can use plain Greek yogurt as a healthier alternative. It adds a similar tang and creaminess to the dish.
• Boost Flavor: To give this dish even more flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce for a bit of heat.
• Cheese Variety: You can use a blend of different cheeses for the topping to
  enhance the flavor. A combination of cheddar and Monterey Jack or
  mozzarella would work well.
• Add Veggies: To add a bit of color and nutritional value, consider adding
  some cooked vegetables such as bell peppers, peas, or mushrooms.

How should I store beef noodle casserole?

Store in the fridge in a tightly sealed container for up to 4 days.

How do I reheat the ground beef and egg noodle casserole?

• In the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil to prevent the top from burning and to keep the dish from drying out. Heat the casserole in the oven for about 20-25 minutes. If the casserole was refrigerated, it may need a few more minutes. Check the middle of the casserole with a fork to make sure it’s heated through. If not, return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes. Once hot, carefully remove from the oven (the dish will be hot), and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
• In the Microwave: Place a portion of the casserole in a microwave-safe dish.
  Cover the dish with a microwave-safe lid or with microwave-safe plastic wrap. If using plastic wrap, poke a few holes in it to allow steam to escape. Heat the casserole on medium power for 2-3 minutes. After this time, carefully remove the dish (it will be hot), stir the casserole, and then return it to the microwave for another 1-2 minutes or until heated through.
