Hamburger Casserole

This is another recipe from Mow Mow, my grandma. This was always one of my favorite things that she made. The combination of the cream cheese, sour cream, and green onions is so tasty!

(This recipe makes a lot, so you might want to half the recipe, or make it all and just freeze half. It freezes really well.)

2 lbs. hamburger meat
1 1/3 tsp. salt
1 2/3 tsp. sugar
2 - 16 oz cans tomatoes
2 - 8 oz cans tomato sauce
3 cloves garlic, chopped
pepper to taste
2 - 5 oz packages wide noodles
1/2 pint sour cream
2 - 3 oz packages cream cheese
12 chopped green onions
2 cups grated mild cheddar cheese

Brown meat in a skillet. Cook for 10 minutes with sugar, salt, and garlic. Add tomatoes and tomato sauce.
Cook noodles, drain but do not rinse. Add sour cream and cream cheese. Stir until cheese melts.
Chop green onions.
In a buttered casserole dish, alternate noodles, meat, onions, and grated cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.

Mmmmm... Mow Mow's Hamburger Casserole. One of my favorites, too, only I haven't been able to make it in forever because the oven is broken. I might have to try this one in the crock pot!
