HAMBURGER NOODLE BAKE

Anita Keith

2 T/ butter or shortening

1 pound hamburger

1 clove garlic

1 teas. salt

dash of pepper

1 teas. sugar

6 scallions (or chopper onion)

1 cup sour cream

1 (3 oz.) package cream cheese

1 (8 oz.) package noodles

2 cans (8 0z. size) tomato sauce

½ cup grated cheddar cheese

Melt fat in skillet, toss in hamburger, breaking it up in small pieces with a fork, fry meat until brown. Crush or chop garlic fine (sometimes I use garlic salt instead of fresh garlic clove) and mix in with the meatalong with salt, pepper, sugar and tomato sauce. Cover and cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes. Cook the noodles according to package directions and drain.

            Start at 350 or moderate. Chop scallions, some of the green tops too and mix with sour cream and cream cheese. Put 1 layer of noodle ( about 1/3) in the bottom of a large casserole, spread with a third of the scallion mixture, cover with a third of the meat sauce. Repeat layers twice. Sprinkle with cheese, bake 20 minutes of until bubbly. Serves 6. Sometimes I put crushed potato chips on top also.
