why i love this recipe
- One pot miracle dinner. With crumbled ground beef and cremini mushrooms, this bad boy comes together in a single pot. It’s truly a one pot wonder where the uncooked egg noodles cook right in the sauce, sopping up everything. That means less time for dishes with only one pan to clean up.
- Quick, simple and budget-friendly. This is one of those affordable family-friendly meals without sacrificing flavor.
- Flexible recipe. Swap out the ground beef for ground chicken or turkey, and go ahead and sneak in those leafy greens for those picky eaters – they won’t even notice them!
tips and tricks for success
- Use your favorite meat. Ground beef, chicken or turkey will all work very well here.
- Choose a wine you will drink. A dry white wine (pinot grigio or sauvignon blanc) is great here – it does not have to be anything fancy or overpriced. Just something you don’t mind sipping on since you will have an open bottle.
- Use good-quality stock. The better quality your stock, the better your stroganoff. Many brands love to pack in the salt so always opt for unsalted or a lower-sodium variety.
- Add in leafy greens. This is a great recipe to sneak in leafy greens for those picky eaters. Spinach, kale, collard greens, swiss chard, or arugula are all great options.
- Make it lighter. Swap out the sour cream for Greek yogurt for added creaminess (with less fat) and protein.
