Cook the meat: In a skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef with onion until fully cooked. Add garlic and cook another minute. Drain excess fat.
Mix the sauce: Stir in tomato sauce, season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Simmer 5 minutes.
Prepare creamy layer: In a bowl, combine cream of mushroom soup and sour cream.
Assemble the casserole:
Spread half the noodles in a greased 9×13 baking dish.
Add half the meat mixture, then half the creamy mixture, followed by a sprinkle of cheese.
Repeat layers, finishing with cheese on top.
Bake: Cover with foil and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 10–15 minutes more, until bubbly and golden.
