Ingredients
1 (16 oz) package egg noodles
1 pound lean ground beef
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, cut into pieces
1 (6 oz) can chopped mushrooms, with liquid
1 (0.75 oz) packet dry brown gravy mix
2 (10.5 oz) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (8 oz) container sour cream
½ cup milk
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- In a large pot, bring lightly salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook until tender but firm to the bite (7 to 9 minutes). Drain the noodles.
- While the noodles cook, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until fully cooked and crumbly (5 to 7 minutes). Drain the excess grease.
- Stir in the cream cheese, mushrooms (with liquid), and brown gravy mix. Cook and stir over medium heat until the cream cheese has melted, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the condensed mushroom soup, sour cream, and milk to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is smooth and creamy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Drain the egg noodles and stir them into the beef mixture. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until everything is heated through.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
