Beef Stroganoff
Whether it’s mood, weather or seasonally-induced, sometimes what we crave is good ole comfort food. Last week, a combination of all three had me yearning for Beef Stroganoff. Odd considering the fact that beef isn’t high on my list of favorite foods but it was the mushrooms, creamy sauce and egg noodles that had me fixated on this definitive dish of the 70s.
I did a bit of Internet surfing before settling on a recipe from the blog Gimme Some Oven. The post’s mention of the children’s book “Strenga Nona” caught my attention and the lightened-up version of this classic appealed to my cooking sensibilities. When making the dish for my family I decided to double the sauce and mushrooms so that I’d have plenty with which to drench my noodles. Feel free to do the same or follow the recipe as written because it really delivered on flavor and texture. Enjoy!

Sounds delicious. My recipe is very similar except I add a dollup of Dijon and some dill.

I love the idea of the addition of Dijon. Next time!

Good luck–but you won’t need it! Let me know how it goes.

It was great! Wells’ plate was filled with leftover mushrooms, but that’s to be expected. It went so well that I made the clam chowder last night and it had race reviews all around. Thank you!!

We have some “forgotten” mushrooms, as well! Have you tried the Chicken Curry yet? It’s an initial surprise when the kids like that one but I bet yours gobble it up. Thanks, Megan!
