5. Combine with Noodles
Add uncooked egg noodles to the mixture, making sure they are mostly submerged in the sauce. Stir gently to distribute everything evenly.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and Parmesan cheese on top.
6. Bake
Cover the casserole with foil and bake for 25–30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10–15 minutes, until the noodles are tender, the sauce is bubbly, and the cheese is golden.
7. Garnish & Serve
Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or chives. Serve warm and enjoy!
