Hamburger casserole is one dish comfort food at its finest. Noodles are mixed with ground beef and vegetables and then topped with cheese and baked to bubbly perfection.
Hamburger Noodle Casserole Ingredients
This casserole features lean ground beef, diced onions, and green peppers, and a hint of Mediterranean herbs from minced garlic and Italian seasoning.
The tomato sauce and diced tomatoes provide a tangy base, while frozen peas, carrots, and corn add a touch of sweetness.
The star of the dish is the gooey, golden layer of shredded cheddar jack cheese on top, creating a creamy, cheesy contrast that ties the dish together.
You’ll need:
- 4 cups of dry egg noodles, cooked
- 1 pound of lean ground beef
- 1 cup of diced onion
- 1 cup of diced green pepper
- 1 teaspoon of minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
- 8-ounce can of tomato sauce
- 14-ounce can of diced Italian-style tomatoes
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- ½ cup of frozen peas and carrots
- ¼ cup of frozen corn
- 2 cups of shredded cheddar jack cheese, divided in half
Easy Hamburger Casserole Substitutions And Additions
PEAS AND CARROTS: If you don’t enjoy peas and carrots, you could add more corn and bell peppers as a substitute.
MEAT: Any type of ground meat, such as ground chicken, ground turkey, or even sausage, would work in this great recipe in place of hamburger meat.
CHEESE: A sharp cheddar cheese is delicious, but you could either replace it or add more of a different type of cheese.
Try mozzarella cheese or an Italian cheese blend. You could even add a bit of cream cheese or sour cream to the beef mixture to increase the creaminess.
SPICE: To kick up the heat a notch, add a dash of red pepper flakes to the mixture.
PASTA: Any bite-size pasta would be a great choice in this recipe. Try pasta shells, penne, or rotini.
SAUCE: Any type of spaghetti sauce would work for this recipe. Choose either plain or one with spice and extra veggies.
How To Make Hamburger Casserole
Savory layers of seasoned ground beef, creamy sauce, and melted cheese make this hamburger casserole with noodles a real winner for weeknight meals.
Here’s how you make our recipe:
STEP ONE: Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
STEP TWO: In a large pot, prepare four cups of dry egg noodles to al dente according to package directions, then set aside once cooked.
PRO TIP:
To test your pasta for al dente, take a bite of the pasta a minute or two before the package instructions indicate it should be done.
When you bite into it, and your teeth feel some resistance, but the pasta is still tender, your pasta is al dente.
STEP THREE: Next, in a large skillet, cook the ground beef until it is almost done, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go.
STEP FOUR: Add the onion and green pepper to the skillet and cook for about four minutes, then add the garlic and Italian seasoning and cook for one minute more.
STEP FIVE: Pour the tomato sauce and diced tomatoes into the skillet, add salt and pepper to taste, and cook together for a few minutes, stirring frequently.
STEP SIX: Put the egg noodles in the bottom of the greased baking dish, then pour the meat mixture on top.
Add in the peas, carrots, corn, and half of the cheese. Mix everything together thoroughly.
STEP SEVEN: Top with remaining cheese and bake for 25 minutes in the oven until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through.
After taking the casserole out of the oven, let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to be redistributed and makes it easier to serve.
How To Serve This Hamburger Casserole Recipe
There’s nothing like a slice of garlic bread to soak up the rich flavors of the casserole.
It also goes great alongside our cheesy pull-apart bread, dinner rolls or rustic Dutch oven bread.
Balance out the heartiness of the casserole with a crisp green side salad or Caesar salad.
Mashed potatoes of any kind pair beautifully with hamburger casserole.
Try our creamy mashed potatoes, cheesy mashed potatoes, or mashed potato casserole.
A chilled glass of iced tea is the perfect drink to go with hamburger casserole. Drinks with a slight fruitiness also pair well.
If you’re looking for refreshing, fruit-infused options, try our peach iced tea, raspberry iced tea or strawberry sweet tea.

How To Store Ground Beef Casserole
If you have leftovers or you’re planning to prep ahead, here are some handy storage tips to ensure every bite remains as delicious as the first.
MAKE AHEAD: This hamburger casserole recipe is a dream for those who love to plan their meals in advance.
You can assemble the entire casserole, but instead of baking, cover it tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
When you’re ready to enjoy, simply bake as instructed, adding an extra ten minutes to the cooking time since it’s starting from chilled.
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
This recipe can be assembled ahead of time the night before and popped in the oven when you are ready to bake it.
In addition, ground beef can be cooked ahead of time in larger batches and frozen until you need it.
To use pre-cooked ground beef, just add the ground beef where indicated and continue the recipe as written.
IN THE FRIDGE: Once your casserole has cooled to room temperature, transfer it to an airtight container or cover the baking dish with plastic wrap or foil.
Your hamburger casserole will keep in the fridge for up to three to four days.
IN THE FREEZER: For those who love to batch-cook or just want to save a portion for a rainy day, this ground beef casserole freezes beautifully.
Once cooled, portion the casserole into freezer-safe containers or bags, ensuring you’ve squeezed out any excess air. Label with the date, and you’re good to go!
This casserole can be stored in the freezer for up to two months. When you’re ready to eat, thaw it in the fridge overnight before reheating.
REHEATING: Whether you’re reheating from the fridge or after thawing from the freezer, you’ve got options.
For oven reheating, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the casserole covered for about 20-25 minutes or until heated through.
If you’re in a hurry, the microwave is your friend.
Transfer a portion to a microwave-safe dish, cover with a microwave-safe lid, and heat on medium power in 2-minute intervals, stirring in between, until hot.
NOTE: Always ensure your casserole reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before enjoying it.

Hamburger Casserole with Noodles FAQs
Can I prepare this casserole ahead of time?
This easy hamburger casserole recipe can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge covered in aluminum foil until you are ready to bake it.
Can you bake ground beef?
Ground beef is often baked into casseroles. Generally, it is cooked in a skillet on the stovetop before being incorporated into a casserole and baked.
What are casseroles made of?
Casseroles tend to have three main components. A protein such as ground meat, fish, beans, or tofu, vegetables, and a starchy component, such as potatoes or pasta, are combined to create a casserole dish.
Can I use a metal pan instead of a casserole dish?
While a casserole dish is a traditional choice to make casseroles, you could also use a glass or metal baking pan or even a cast-iron skillet for your casserole recipe.
Can you put Pyrex in the oven?
Pyrex glassware can be safely put in the oven to bake your casserole. Just ensure that if you are transferring a “made-ahead” casserole from the fridge or freezer, you allow the dish to come to room temperature before placing it in the oven. If the glassware moves between two very different temperatures, there is a risk of it shattering.
What holds a casserole together?
The sauce in a casserole recipe is what keeps all of the components together.

Do you not drain the grease from the hamburger?
Layne Kangas says
I used lean so there wasn’t any to drain but if you had a lot of excess grease, you could definitely drain it!
Elysia Howard says
I had to make some adjustments because I didn’t have all the ingredients…no pepper, used minced dried onion, no peas/carrots, I only had crushed tomatoes and a Mexican cheese blend. And STILL came out great. Whole family loved it!
Pamela says
Used GF noodles and turned out great!
Heather says
My family doesn’t like frozen veggies can I use canned? Do I change the baking time?

I would make everything but the noodles and freeze and then make the noodles and bake the dish after thawing when you’re ready to eat. Enjoy!
Cassie says

Candice Jugpal says
Hey hopefully you’ll reply! For freezing, am I fully baking it first and then freezing, or just assembling and freezing?
Thanks!
Layne Kangas says
So what I have done is make the meat mixture and then freezing. Then I thaw it, make the egg noodles and then finish following the recipe from there — assembling and baking when I’m ready to serve. I have heard that you could make the entire dish and freeze it but I haven’t done it that way personally. Hope that helps!
Mary says
So you boil the noodles to al dente and then bake them for an additional 25 minutes??

Yes, correct – hope you enjoy! 🙂

Juliet says
Hi, this sounds amazing! It doesn’t say to drain the ground beef….. do I add everything into that juice? Thx
Layne Kangas says
If you use lean ground beef, you probably won’t need to drain. If you do have extra grease, go ahead and drain before proceeding. Enjoy! 🙂
Pam says
Layne!!! This was delicious! I made it for dinner last night and it was a huge hit… The leftovers were just as good! I couldn’t find frozen peas and carrots combo so I used the canned. I also used two cans of diced tomatoes for a little more moisture, other than that I seasoned with Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to my taste… this is definitely a keeper! Thank you so much for sharing this awesome recipe!!

Delicious, made it just the way the recipe says and the family loves it. Definitely a keeper!!!

What can I use other than frozen peas and carrots? My husband hates peas & carrots.
Layne Kangas says
You could do more corn and peppers. Enjoy 🙂
Jerry says
Never tried Turkey, chicken or sausage, may try sausage
Jen says
Made this tonight with breakfast sausage instead of ground beef because it was all I had and I was too lazy to go to the store. Delicious! Tastes kind of like a supreme pizza in a pan.
Dovie says
That sounds like an excellent spin! Could add chopped pepperoni, mushrooms and leave out the peas and corn and finish with a little basil and mozzarella.
Lisa Ghaffari says
How do I measure using spaghetti or fettuccine?

Hi, Lisa – I haven’t tried swapping out for a different type of noodle. I would prepare four cups worth of the other noodles to substitute. Enjoy!

Absolutely delicious – easy to make and so flavorful!
