Method
- In a large skillet, brown the Italian sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
- Drain off any excess grease.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, softened cream cheese, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- In your crockpot, combine the cooked sausage, cooked egg noodles, and creamy sauce.
- Stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 3-4 hours or on high for 1.5-2 hours, or until heated through and bubbly.
- During the last 30 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
- Cover and continue cooking until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
For best results, use softened cream cheese to avoid lumps in the sauce. Cook noodles al dente to prevent mushiness. Cooking times may vary depending on your crockpot. Add vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
