A comforting and easy-to-make casserole combining cheesy potatoes and noodles.
Cook the egg noodles in boiling water until tender, then drain.
Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water for extra flavor.
In a saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the onions until they are soft and translucent.
Cook the onions on medium heat to avoid burning them.
Prepare the mashed potatoes according to the package instructions.
Use milk instead of water for creamier mashed potatoes.
Layer half of the cooked noodles in the bottom of a casserole dish.
Spread the noodles evenly for consistent layers.
Add a layer of cheese slices, followed by the mashed potatoes, then the remaining noodles, and top with the rest of the cheese slices.
Press down gently after each layer to compact the casserole.
Pour the butter and onion mixture over the top, ensuring it seeps through the layers.
Use a spoon to distribute the mixture evenly.
Bake the casserole in a preheated oven at 350°F for 20 minutes until heated through and the cheese is melted.
Cover the dish with foil if the top starts to brown too quickly.
Serve the casserole warm and enjoy.
Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh touch.
