Creamy Lasagna Casserole Recipe

Prep: 30 min. Bake: 25 min. + standing

Yield: 8-12 Servings

30 25 55

Ingredients

2 pounds ground beef
1 can (29 ounces) tomato sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
2 cups (16 ounces) sour cream
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
4 green onions, chopped
12 to 14 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained

Directions

In a Dutch oven, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add the tomato sauce, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add the sour cream, 1 cup cheddar cheese and onions; mix well.
Spread about 1/2 cup meat sauce into each of two greased 8-in. square baking dishes. Place two to three noodles in each dish, trimming to fit as necessary. Top each with about 1/2 cup cream cheese mixture and 2/3 cup meat sauce. Repeat layers twice. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheddar cheese over each.
Cover and freeze one casserole for up to 1 month. Bake remaining casserole, uncovered, at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly and heated through. Let stand for 15 minutes before cutting.
To use frozen casserole: Thaw in the refrigerator for 18 hours. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 2 casseroles (4-6 servings each).

Editor's Note: Reduced-fat or fat-free cream cheese and sour cream are not recommended for this recipe.

We love making lasagna this way. We don't use as much cream cheese, however. This recipe is so creamy!

Super Yum! Made this for my boyfriend and we both loved it. The onion was a surprise and it was really good. Had to use just one onion instead of 4 and less sour cream but more cream cheese which makes a difference! Will do it again for sure!

Very yummy! Made it with spaghetti noodle because I didn't have lasagna noodles and I was hungry for lasagna.

I made this for my daughter and husband. We loved this recipe. The combination of cream cheese and sour cream is very tasty. I made this for my family and they all loved it as well. I do not like lasagna with onion, peppers and tomoato chunks therefore this recipe was perfect! I will be making this again.

I cut the recipe in half to make 1 casserole. Seemed like there was too much cheese mixture compared to the beef mixture, maybe I should have let it set longer. Very rich-one helping is plenty.

Unusual and delicious! My husband and teenage son LOVED it so much, I had to make it again a week later!
