Beef With Carrots Casserole image

I found this in with a box of old hand written recipe cards & magazine clippings I purchased at a thrift shop in Kansas. Everyone grabbbed for seconds after we first tried this. You may use reduced fat ingredients if you must, but the fat free versions will not provide enough flavor. I usually use lower fat sour cream & cottage cheese, but full fat NY Cheddar for the topping. If you like, you may freeze the casserole before baking, then cook it at 400 F for 1 hour instead.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb lean ground beef
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 -2 garlic clove, minced, to taste
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1/2-1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
1 cup light sour cream or 1 cup sour cream
1 cup cottage cheese
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped or 2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 cup carrot (fresh not canned)
8 ounces egg noodles, freshly cooked and drained
1 (4 ounce) can mushrooms, drained, chopped
1/2-3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (regular or light)

Steps:

  • (If you haven't already done so,steam your carrots and cook your egg noodles according to package directions, timing it so that they are drained ready to go by the time the sour cream mixture is ready).
  • Saute onions, garlic, and beef in a large skillet until fully cooked.
  • Drain fat.
  • Add tomato sauce, salt, and pepper to the meat mixture and simmer on medium-low about 5 minutes, lid ajar.
  • Mix together sour cream, cottage cheese, parsley, and carrots in a bowl.
  • Add creamy mixture to the cooked egg noodles along with the mushrooms and stir gently to combine.
  • In a 3 quart casserole (sprayed with nonstick spray), layer the meat and the noodles alternately, beginning and ending with the noodle mixture.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the top and bake, uncovered, in a preheated 350 F oven for 30 minutes, do not overcook or it will dry out.

This was my first time making beef casserole and it turned out great! I was a bit worried that the beef would be tough, but it was actually very tender. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of beef casseroles, but this one was actually really good. The beef was tender and the carrots were perfectly cooked. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the casserole turned out great! I used a chuck roast instead of stew meat and it was still very tender.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more seasoning.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think there are easier ways to make a beef casserole.
