Ground Beef in Sour Cream V-8 Noodles

Submitted by RepoGuysWife

"I got this from an E-mail Recipe group I belonged to BZ. (Before Zaar) This is a yummy one pot dinner that makes a great quick weeknight meal. I had some V-8 juice that was sitting in my fridge going to waste so this worked great for me. I used only celery salt, the flavor really adds something. Noodles are egg noodles in my house, but I am sure elbows or corkscrew would work fine. Hope you enjoy!"

Everyone loved this, including the picky kids. An easy, one skillet main dish that's great comfort food. Made as directed except had some fresh mushrooms to use up and sauteed them along with the onion. I did not find it salty, but suggest starting with 1t salt and 1t celery salt if you're worried about it. Used lowfat sour cream. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This was just okay in my opinion. My kids refused to eat it after one bite, and DH gobbled it up so I think it averages out to three stars. If I make it again I'll definitely leave the extra salt out (the V8 and worcestershire were enough). Served with recipe #332726.
