How To Make sausage noodle casserole

• Step 1
  I cooked sausage and onions in skillet. While cooking this I sprinkled on these ingredients: red pepper flakes, pepper, salt, paprika, ginger, and nutmeg. I cooked until sausage was browned and onions tender.

  Then I added 1 teaspoon minced garlic (from a jar), 2 Tablespoons parsley, and a half Tablespoon up to 1 Tablespoon of dried basil, stirring to cook for a few seconds.

  Step 3
  I then added ¼ cup flour to make a roux and cook for at least 2 or 3 minutes to cook out the raw taste of the flour. Then I added two cups of milk and a ¼ cup water. I cooked this until bubbly and beginning to thicken (WHICH TOOK ME SEVEN MINUTES). Then I added the COOKED egg noodles, stirring to combine. I poured the entire mixture into a buttered casserole dish (8x8).
