Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ¾ cup parmesan
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ medium onion, diced small
  • 2 stalks celery, diced small
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 8 ounces egg noodles, cooked
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 ½ teaspoons lemon zest

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish. Melt half the butter in a small bowl in the microwave. Set aside.
  • In a small mixing bowl, add the panko, half of the parmesan, and melted butter. Stir to combine. Set aside.
