Ingredients
This is a brief overview of this great recipe. For step-by-step instructions and a full printable recipe card with ingredients, please scroll down to the teal box below.
- Leftover Pork Tenderloin or Pork Chops – Cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Cream of Mushroom Soup – If you don’t care for mushrooms, you can use cream of celery, or make your own cream soup substitute.
- Sour Cream – You can use regular or low-fat sour cream.
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese – This casserole is also delicious with Monterrey Jack or Colby Jack cheese.
- Frozen Vegetables – I like to use a mix of peas, corn, and carrots, but you can use any veggies you like.
- Seasonings – garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper
- Egg Noodles (cooked) – Instead of noodles, use 1 ½ cups of cooked rice or cooked potatoes.
Variations:
- Add a little extra flavor by using a tablespoon of pork seasoning rub, Mediterranean seasoning, or Italian seasoning.
- If you have a few extra minutes, sauté 1 small onion in a skillet with butter until tender, then stir it into the casserole mixture before baking. This will add delicious flavor to the casserole.

This recipe can also be used with leftover beef from a pot roast to make a beefy version.
Storage
To Store: Leftover Pork Casserole should be stored in the fridge in an airtight container. (These are my favorite airtight containers.) Stored properly, this will last 3-4 days.
To Reheat: Microwave individual portions in 30-second intervals until heated throughout.
Serving Suggestions
This all-in-one meal really doesn’t need anything extra. However, you can get some great ideas on what to serve with pork tenderloin that would also work for this dinner.

This recipe is amazing! Very easy, quick, and affordable to make and it goes a long way. I have made it 3 times in one month. I have made it two different ways. First way by the instructions and it was delicious. My kids each ate two plates! And just FYI my kids are very picky eaters, I feel like this is a very well rounded dish that can please the taste palette of just about anyone! The second way I cooked it was with some heat (sargento franks red hot cheese and Melinda’s jalapeno ranch sauce). And that version brought some heat to the table in the recipe. BUT I PROMISE YOU cannot go wrong with this recipe!!! I’m not going to lie I’m probably bring it to the family Christmas party!!!! Amazing job on this one!
