Hey, everyone! Here’s a “bonus” recipe: I was only going to post my recipes on Thursdays, but this one turned out so great, and I’m so excited about it, that I just had to put it up now!
My daughter loves stroganoff, but I have to admit, I’ve never made it before. I usually feed her the complete-in-a-box or frozen options. But in keeping with my new goal of cooking more and spending less, I looked in my already-stocked pantry and found I had everything I need for one of her favorite meals.
This dish cost less than $7 total, and offers six or more hearty servings. Now who doesn’t love a yummy deal like that?
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cans Cream of Mushroom soup, undiluted
1 small can (6 oz.) chopped mushrooms
1 package Knorr Pasta Sides: Strogranoff
Cook pasta as directed. Separately, in large skillet (I used my chicken fryer) brown ground beef and onion on medium. When meat is browned, turn heat to medium-low and add soup and mushrooms. Mix thoroughly. Keep on low. When pasta is done, add to meat mix. Enjoy!
If I had the money, I would totally go make this right now. It sounds amazing!
Sounds like another easy one.
Love quick and easy! Can’t wait for the cook book!
I might have a really similar recipe for you. Part of the trick is that I make mine w/ leftovers.
When various ‘london broil’ type cuts go on sale, I’ll buy one, cook it as a london broil, but I always have leftovers. The next night, you can use the extra meat as the basis for a stir-fry, fajitas, stroganoff, cheese steaks, or anything else that uses sliced meat.
Saute some onion, then add the meat, thinly sliced and a can of mushrooms.. Cook ’til warmed through, then add a can of mushrooms andcondensed mushroom soup (undiluted), and some sour cream (about a cup; adjust if you like things more or less sour) and whatever drippings there might be from the meat. Season to taste, then cook on low ’til warmed through. Serve over egg or other wide noodles.
In a pinch, the onion and/or can of mushrooms (not the mushroom soup) can be left out. Plain (not sweetened) yogurt can be used in place of the sour cream, but you’ll miss out on some of the tang.
