One of my favorite meals growing up was stroganoff. Unfortunately, my husband is not a fan. I did finally find the recipe for the ultimate beef stroganoff that my husband would eat. He would however still prefer a hamburger version. I saw this recipe for Mock Stroganoff in my February issue of Simple and Delicious and figured he would love this version. It was quick and simple. I did make some changes to the recipe, so this is my version.
Here is what you need to make the
Mock Stroganoff
NOODLES (BOW TIE, ROTINI, PENNE, WHATEVER YOU WANT)
4cups uncooked noodles (Bow tie, rotini, penne, whatever you want)
1lb ground beef
1/4cup chopped onion
1/4cup sliced fresh mushrooms (I left this out because I’m the only mushroom lover at my house)
1 1/2 cup cups water
2 envelopes brown gravy mix
1 1/2cup sour cream
diced green onion, optional
additional sour cream, optional
Instructions
Cook noodles according to package.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef, onions, and mushrooms over medium heat until beef is no longer pink; drain.
Stir in water and gravy mix. Bring to a boil; cook for 2 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and mix in sour cream. Server over cooked noodles. Top with additional sour cream and green onion if desired. The green onion adds a nice and fresh flavor to the dish. Serves 4-5

This sounds yummy. I wonder if my husband will notice the gravy packets…that’s what he doesn’t like. Plus, he generally makes the real stroganoff in our house, but it takes some time. 🙂

I too have childhood memories of this fall comfort meal. I love adding dry sherry or dry white wine to the simmering meat mixture. You should try it that way! It adds a great flavor that the whole family loves!

Gonna have to try this one :-. I like stroganoff but dont like shrooms and usually just pick them out so this one minus the shrooms looks like a winner!

Emmmmmm, this sounds good. I love stroganoff, but dislike the kind with cream of mushroom soup. Can not wait to try. Thanks for sharing.
