Why You'll Love This Recipe

  • A great recipe for comfort food for the entire family!
  • From scratch! No canned cream of mushroom soup!
  • The family favorite can be made ahead and popped in the oven later, just as well as it can be served immediately!

Ingredient Notes

  • Beef Broth - I prefer to make my beef broth from a base instead of beef bouillon cubes or granules. The flavor is richer and just overall better. My favorite brand is Better than Bouillon. You can use chicken broth in place of the beef broth.
  • Butter - I used salted butter. If using unsalted butter, you'll need to increase the amount the recipe calls for by ยฝ tsp.
  • Salt - The recipe calls for 1 teaspoon salt. Depending on the beef broth you use and personal taste, you may need to add more salt.
  • Egg Noodles - You'll want medium or small egg noodles. The large ones are just too large, in my opinion.
  • Ground Beef - I used lean ground beef.
  • Mushrooms - I like cremini mushrooms best, but you can use the mushroom of your choice as long as they are fresh mushrooms.
  • Flour - I used all-purpose flour.
  • Sour Cream - Plain Greek yogurt can be substituted for the sour cream.

Couple Things You'll Need

How to make:

  • Wash your mushrooms before slicing to remove any dirt that may be stuck to them.
  • Chop up the onion.
  • Melt the butter to sizzling over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
  • Add the mushrooms and onions.
  • Once the onions start to look translucent and the mushrooms begin to soften, stir in the flour to make a paste.
  • Add the 2 ยฝ cups of beef broth a little bit at a time stirring between each addition.
  • Add the salt and simmer until mushrooms are soft and the mixture has thickened.
  • NOTE - This next step is optional! My kids won't touch this if they can tell mushrooms are in it, so I blend it up and tell a fib or two. If you want the mushrooms to remain in pieces, skip the blending step.
  • Blend the mushroom mixture in a food processor or bullet blender until smooth.
  • Heat a frying pan over medium heat and brown the ground beef.
  • Drain the excess grease and add the ground beef to the mushroom mixture or vice versa.
  • Whisk the sour cream and ยฝ cup whole milk at first into the beef and creamy sauce to avoid having too much liquid. If there's not enough liquid, you can add another ยฝ cup of whole milk.
  • Bring a pot of water to boil over high heat and cook the egg noodles al dente according to package directions.
  • Drain the pasta and mix it into the beef and mushroom sauce.
  • Salt to taste.
  • Serve with extra sour cream or a dash of Worcestershire sauce.
  • OR spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Pour the ground beef stroganoff into the baking dish.
  • Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and put in the fridge to cook later.
  • Cook at 350 for 20-25 minutes to heat all the way through. Stir before serving.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container.

Recipe FAQs
