Ingredients

1 lb beef ground
1 large onion optional
10 oz egg noodles
8 oz cremini mushrooms diced
8 oz package cream cheese
1 cup water
½ cup whole milk or heavy cream
2 tsp salt plus more to taste if preferred
2 tsp fresh cracked pepper
green onions chopped, to garnish
parmesan grated, to garnish

Instructions

In a large pan, brown ground beef on medium high.
When mostly browned, drain fat, and add noodles.
Stir to prevent burning, but let noodles toast.
Add mushrooms and let cook down and release liquid, keep stirring so noodles don't burn and stick.
Add milk, cheese, and water and let cook until reduced, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
When noodles are al dente and liquid has cooked down to a creamy sauce, remove from heat and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Garnish with green onions or cilantro and fresh grated parmesan.
