What you’ll need:

1 pound ground beef

1 255 gram package of egg noodles (we used Jovial Gluten Free organic egg pasta from Home Sense!)

TIP: If you can’t find gf egg noodles, regular gf pasta will also work, as does rice)

1 cup grated cheddar or mozzarella cheese

TIP: We like to use Kraft Cracker Barrel Grated cheese

1 onion, chopped

1 cup kernel corn

2 cans (10 ounce) of tomato sauce

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon onion powder

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon ketchup

Salt and pepper to taste

OPTIONAL: Hot pepper flakes

What you’ll do:

Brown the ground beef in a fry pan.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook noodles in boiling salted water for five minutes (half of the regular cooking time). We broke them up a bit to make them more “casserole friendly.”

While cooking, combine cooked ground beef, corn, tomato sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, sugar, ketchup, hot pepper flakes if using, salt and pepper in large bowl.

Drain the pasta and add to tomato mixture. Mix to combine.

Pour the pasta and tomatoes into a large casserole dish, cover and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the cover and leave in oven until the cheese is bubbly.
