Step-by-Step Instructions
To begin, I usually start by boiling the egg noodles according to the package instructions. It’s important to cook them just until they’re al dente, as they’ll continue to cook in the oven later on. While the noodles are doing their thing, I brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat with the chopped onion. The smell of onion and beef cooking is so comforting—it just feels like home! Once the beef is completely cooked, I drain any excess grease. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
