Grandmas Hamburger Macaroni Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Mix sugar, salt, garlic salt and tomato sauce into ground beef; simmer until flavors blend, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat, cover skillet, and cool to room temperature.
• 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, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool slightly.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
• Mix sour cream, cream cheese, and onion in a bowl.
• Scoop half the noodles into the prepared casserole dish; top with half the sour cream mixture. Spoon half the ground beef mixture atop sour cream layer. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients. Top casserole with Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until Cheddar cheese has browned, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease an 11x13-inch baking dish.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain. Transfer to a bowl, add processed cheese cubes, and let stand until cheese partially melts.
• Place ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, break meat apart with a spatula, and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
• Stir Cheddar cheese soup, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, and onion together in a bowl; gently fold macaroni and processed cheese mixture into soup mixture. Stir in milk until thoroughly combined. Mix ground beef into macaroni mixture and spread into prepared baking dish. Top casserole with slices of American cheese and sprinkle cracker crumbs on top. Cover casserole with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is bubbling, about 20 minutes; remove foil and bake until top is golden brown, about 10 more minutes.

Steps:

• Cook the macaroni as directed on package.
• Cook bacon until crisp.
• Add onion and ground beef to skillet & cook until meat is browned. Drain fat.
• Add cooked ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, & tomato soup to macaroni. Mix well.
• Place mixture in 3 1/2 quart casserole dish.
• Top with shredded cheese.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Boil macaroni according to package directions until almost al dente. Meanwhile, slice the onions into about 1/4 inch thick slices.
• Drain macaroni and rinse under hot water.
• Spread a layer of macaroni about 1/2 inch deep in the bottom of a large, deep casserole dish with a lid. I've found that glass, stoneware or Corningware works best.
• Lay cheese slices evenly on top of macaroni, tearing slices to fill in holes as necessary. If you like this really cheesy, repeat this layer.
• Spread onion slices one layer thick over cheese.
• Slice tomatoes in half lengthwise and place cut side down onto onion layer.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper sparingly on tomatoes.
• Place small, thin pats of butter or margarine on tomatoes. I don't have an exact amount because I just "eyeball" it.
• Repeat all layers beginning with the macaroni.
• When your casserole dish is almost full or you are out of ingredients pour about 1/3 to 1/2 cup (depending on how much liquid you want in the end) of the juice from the tomato cans evenly over casserole.
• Cover casserole dish and put in the oven pre-heated to 350 degrees.
• Bake 2 hours, or until onions look done and cheese is melted (here's where the transparent casserole dish comes in handy!).
• Remove from oven, let stand about 5 minutes and enjoy!
• NOTE: This casserole has a bad habit of bubbling over in the oven. To contain the mess I either put the dish on an old aluminum foil lined cookie sheet, or I put the foil lined cookie sheet under the casserole dish on the rack below it.

Steps:
