Historical Casserole–a one-pot Instant Pot beef and noodle dinner that combines seasoned ground beef, spicy brown mustard, sweet corn and melty cheddar.
Historical Casserole
Today’s recipe is an oldie but a goode. The combo of beef, noodles, and a hint of sweetness from ketchup and corn is nostalgic and satisfying. Most ingredients are basic staples you likely already have on hand. This recipe is adapted from Historical Round-Steak Casserole on Silver Spring Foods.
Ingredients/Substitution Ideas
- Lean ground beef–I used 93/7
- Onion
- Kosher salt
- Black pepper
- Garlic powder
- Beef broth–or water and Better than Bouillon beef base
- Old fashioned wide egg noodles–I used Mrs. Miller’s brand
- Spicy brown mustard–or 1 Tbsp horseradish
- Ketchup
- Tomato sauce
- Frozen sweet corn
- Cheddar cheese–or colby
Steps
Turn Instant Pot to saute setting. When display says HOT add in the beef and break it up. Add in the onions. Brown for 5 minutes. Drain off excess grease. Stir in the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Pour in the broth and scrape bottom of pot so that nothing is sticking. Turn off Instant Pot.
Sprinkle in the egg noodles. Dump in the mustard, ketchup, tomato sauce and corn.
Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 5 minutes. When time is up let pot sit for 5-10 minutes and then move valve to venting. Remove the lid.
Stir well. Stir in the cheese. Serve and enjoy!
Notes/Tips
- Serve with a green salad or some roasted green beans.
- I used the wide old fashioned egg noodles that are in the stand up bags. I find them with the other pastas at the grocery store.
- Layer, don’t stir before pressure cooking to prevent the dreaded burn notice.
- I used my 6 quart Instant Pot*. You can also make this in a 3 or 8 quart pot.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container* in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Other recipes you can make with frozen sweet corn are Tallerini Casserole and Funky Casserole.
