Ingredients
lean ground beef
1 lb (none)
salt
1/4 teaspoon (none)
pepper
1/4 teaspoon (none)
oil
1 teaspoon (to taste)
sliced fresh mushrooms
8 ounces (washed and sliced)
large onion
1 (chopped)
minced garlic cloves
3 (or jarred equivalent)
chicken broth or chicken bouillon

cream of mushroom soup
10.75 ounces (1 can)

Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon (none)

Instructions
1
In a large, deep frying pan over medium heat, brown the ground beef, seasoning it with salt and pepper. Break the meat up as it cooks until fully browned. Drain the excess grease.
2
Add the oil to the pan, followed by the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Stir everything together and sauté for about 2 minutes, or until the onion is tender and the mushrooms have released their moisture.
3
Pour in the chicken broth (or bouillon), and let the mixture simmer for 3 minutes over medium-low heat to enhance the flavors.
4
Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and Dijon mustard, mixing well until the sauce is smooth and uniformly combined.
5
Fold in the cooked egg noodles gently until they are well coated with the sauce. If your pan is too small to accommodate everything, transfer the noodle mixture into a greased 13x9-inch baking dish.
6
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once heated, cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
7
After 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes uncovered, allowing the casserole to become bubbly and slightly golden on top.
8
Serve hot, accompanied by a fresh tossed salad and garlic bread for a complete meal.
