Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the snipped dried beef and 1 cup of water in a large 2-quart microwave-safe casserole dish.
  2. Cover the dish and microwave on high for 2 to 3 minutes until the water reaches a boil.
  3. Carefully remove the dish from the microwave and drain the water from the beef.
  4. Return the beef to the dish and stir in the chopped onion, uncooked noodles, cream of mushroom soup, milk, remaining 1 cup of water, and dried parsley flakes.
  5. Cover the dish and microwave on high for 10 minutes, then remove and stir well to break up any clumps.
  6. Cover again and continue microwaving for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  7. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  8. Cover and microwave for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  9. Let the casserole stand, covered, for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the noodles to finish setting before serving.
