Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray and set it aside.
Step 2: Make the Meatballs
1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, grated onion, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
2. Scoop about 1 ½ tablespoons of the mixture and roll into balls. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form the meatballs.
Step 3: Brown the Meatballs
1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Transfer the browned meatballs to a plate and set aside.
Step 4: Cook the Noodles
1. While the meatballs are browning, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
2. Cook the egg noodles for two minutes less than the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
Step 5: Make the Sauce
1. In the same skillet used for the meatballs, add the beef broth, heavy cream, and Worcestershire sauce.
2. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet and bring the mixture to a simmer.
3. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 6: Assemble the Casserole
