While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes. Drain.
-
While the egg noodles are cooking, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
-
Mix sour cream, cream cheese, and onion together in a bowl.

Cook’s Note
I like to add the diced onion with the cheese before baking but you can sauté it with the beef if you prefer.
