Noodles Romanoff

Sabia's Note:

My husband and his family are obsessed with the old store-bought box called "Noodles Romanoff" and when they stopped selling it he went on a crusade to copy it. I think it's better than that box version and he thinks he's figured it out. So here it is. I prefer it without the sugar and the garlic salt. If you add chopped bits of ham to this, it makes a good meal.

• Total Time: 20 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 2

• 4 ounces egg noodles
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 1 tablespoon butter
• ½ cup milk
• ½ cup sour cream
• 1 cup cheddar cheese (but we like colby-jack)
• ½ tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions:

1. Cook noodles as directed and drain.
2. While the noodles cook, make a rue by melting the butter in a pot first and then adding the flour to make a sort of yellow mixture.
3. Add milk, sugar, garlic salt and salt and let boil.
4. Right after it boils, remove from heat and add sour cream and cheese. Mix to melt.
5. Add noodles to the pot and mix sauce together with noodles.

At least I have a place to start as we loved the boxed recipe too. I may try Romano cheese next time as suggested by another review. Also, as much as I love salt, it was way to salty. I may try garlic powder instead of garlic salt. Other than being too salty it was pretty good. I think I will try it again with only the two changes above.

This is more Noodles Cheddaroff. Noodles Romano should have Romano cheese. Nothing like Noodles Romanoff.
