Noodle Heaven

*******************************************************
adapted from Frozen Assets

1 lb. lean ground beef
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. onion powder
3 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce
1 (8 oz.) package 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese
1 cup low fat sour cream
1 (8 oz.) pkg. noodles
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated

Brown beef in a large skillet. Add garlic, salt, sugar and tomato sauce and simmer for 10 minutes. In a small bowl blend cream cheese, sour cream and onion powder. Boil noodles, undercooking a minute or two; drain. In a 9X13 inch baking dish layer noodles, the cream cheese mixture and the tomato-meat sauce. Repeat layers. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top.

To freeze: cover with foil, label and freeze.

To serve: transfer to fridge the night before. Bake in 350 degree oven for 40 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly.

Rating: 3.5 stars. This is a great freezer meal and the whole family likes it. It's fun to make the layers!
