In these long, dreary winter months, there’s nothing quite so comforting as coming in out of the cold and sitting down to a hot meal. Nothing fancy, nothing trendy, just good solid food that warms you up inside and out.

This Comforting Beefy Noodle Casserole fits the bill perfectly. It’s a whole hot meal packed into one dish: beef, veggies, noodles, and a nice brown gravy, all topped off with golden-brown puffs of hot biscuits. And everything in it is kid-friendly, so it’s a meal the whole family can enjoy.

This is a little more complicated to make than a lot of my one-dish meals, because you have to put together the casserole first, then make the biscuit topping and spoon dollops of it over top. However, if you’re in a pinch, you can save a bit of time by using a tube of refrigerated biscuits instead. Just peel them apart and layer them on top of the casserole before baking it.

Comforting Beefy Noodle Casserole…it’s not just dinner, it’s a hug in a casserole dish.
