Macaroni Casserole

So I decided to do one of my own recipes on here, well actually it's my mom's....and with that I'm sure she got it from someone else.  Oh well I have no one to cite for this except my mom.  This was always my favorite meal growing up.  My dad and brother didn't like the cream cheese/sour cream mixture so it was always have the pan just sauce and and cheese and the other half was lathered in the creamy sauce.

So to start it up bring some water to a boil and cook the bow tie pasta.  I'm assuming everyone knows how to make noodles.
Chop up the medium onion and the clove of garlic and put it in a sauce pan with a little oil.  Let it start cooking for a minute before adding in the meat.  I always use ground beef, but turkey tastes really good also.

After the meat has browned pour in the can of tomato sauce and add the oregano. Let it simmer for 20 minutes so all the flavors get absorbed into the sauce.

 Mix the sour cream and cream cheese in a separate bowl until it is creamy.

Now I am assuming the noodles are done.  I usually double this recipe and make it in a cake pan, but it could fit in an 8x8.  Put the noodles on the bottom of the pan and start dropping dollops of the cream cheese/sour cream spread across the pan.  Spread the mixture all over the noodles until it is evenly covered.

Take the meat sauce and pour it evenly over the noodles and do a little spreading to make sure it is even.  Take the cheddar cheese and sprinkle it over the top of the casserole.

Place it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted.
