Ingredients
Lean ground beef
1 lb (browned and drained)
Salt
1/4 teaspoon (for seasoning)
Black pepper
1/8 teaspoon (for seasoning)
Vegetable oil
1 teaspoon (for sautéing)
Mushrooms
8 ounces (sliced)
Onion
1 large (chopped)
Garlic
3 cloves (minced)
Dry white wine
1/4 cup (for deglazing)
Cream of mushroom soup
1 can (10 3/4 ounces) (for the sauce)

1/2 cup (for creaminess)
Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon (for flavor)
Cooked egg noodles
4 cups (as the base)
Fresh parsley

Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2
Prepare a 13x9-inch baking dish by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the lean ground beef. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the beef is browned and no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat from the skillet and set the beef aside.
4
In the same skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook and stir for about 2 minutes or until the onion becomes tender.
5
Pour in the dry white wine to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 3 minutes so the flavors meld together.
6
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and Dijon mustard until everything is well mixed. Reintroduce the cooked beef to the skillet and stir to combine.
7
In the prepared baking dish, spread the cooked egg noodles evenly across the bottom. Pour the beef mixture over the noodles and gently stir to ensure that the noodles are fully coated with the sauce.
8
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil during the last 5-10 minutes of baking to allow the top to become slightly golden and bubbly.
9
Once heated through, remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
