Recipe Tips
- The longer you cook the ground beef in the gravy sauce, the more it reduces, so try to keep that cooking time short.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of egg noodles based on your preference—more or less, it’s all good!
- If you’re a fan of mushrooms, toss in some chopped ones while you’re cooking the onion for extra flavor.
- And don’t forget to let the sour cream come to room temperature before mixing it in; this helps prevent curdling when it hits the hot pan!
How To Store Leftovers
- Refrigerate – Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
- To Reheat – Just reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth if needed to loosen the sauce.
