Fixed this last night for the hubby, and he couldn’t stop eating it!

Nostalgic Tomato Beef Noodles: This recipe transports me back to the lively kitchens of my youth, where the scent of tomatoes and beef simmering together filled the air. It’s a comforting classic in Midwestern households, symbolizing hearty meals and family bonds. Perfect for gatherings or a warm dinner on a chilly night, this dish captures the essence of home-cooked love with its rich flavors and straightforward preparation.

Pair this dish with a crisp green salad drizzled with tangy vinaigrette to balance the hearty noodles. A side of crusty bread or homemade dinner rolls is ideal for soaking up the savory sauce. For a nostalgic touch, consider a classic Jell-O salad or a simple cucumber and onion salad, just like Grandma used to make.

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent.
2. Add ground beef, cooking until it’s browned and crumbled. Drain any excess fat.
3. Mix in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, and let it cook for about 15 minutes to meld the flavors.
4. Cook egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
5. Combine the cooked noodles with the beef and tomato sauce, stirring until well coated.
6. Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
