### Directions:
1. **Preheat the oven** to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish.
2. **Cook the pasta:** Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until they’re al dente. Drain and set aside.
3. **Cook the beef:** In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking for about 2 minutes until softened. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 6-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
4. **Add the sauce ingredients:** Stir in the diced tomatoes, beef broth, and tomato sauce. Bring to a simmer, and cook for another 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. **Combine the casserole:** In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked egg noodles, beef mixture, and sour cream. Stir everything together until well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
6. **Top with cheese:** Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
7. **Bake:** Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. **Serve:** Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
