Beef Stroganoff

YUM-O!

Seriously...I crave this beef stroganoff!! It's a classic "comfort food" dish and warms you up on a chilly day! This is a recipe Mom had although I don't really recall her making this for us as we were growing up!

Beef Stroganoff

Ingredients:

*2# beef--cut into pieces or strips

*1/2 tsp salt & pepper

*1 stick butter

*chopped onion

*1 can beef broth

*mushrooms (8 oz. container)

*1/3 c. sour cream

*wide egg noodles or rice to serve

Directions:

1. Melt 1 stick salted butter and brown the meat.

2. Add chopped onion & 1 can beef broth.

3. Simmer about an hour until the meat is tender.

4. Add mushrooms and thicken with some flour--cook til mushrooms are heated through.

5. Add 1/3 cup sour cream--stir.

6. Serve immediately over noodles or rice.

Serve with some crusty french bread and a side of fruit.

NOTES: The beef can be top sirloin or tip sirloin and I like to buy mine ahead of time at Costco (or Sam's Club)--cut into strips and then freeze in 2 lb packages for Beef Stroganoff night!

NOTES: Use whatever size mushroom container you'd like--I like the mushrooms from the produce department (and not the ones in the can) for this recipe.

This also tastes great for lunch the next day!
I don't know if this would work well frozen (freezing sour cream dishes don't always turn out that great)--but I have made this for dinner for new moms or sick friends and they eat it a few hours later. I just don't recommend making a freezer meal out of this dish.
