Beef Stroganoff

This is one of my go-to meals-- when I'm not sure what to make... or I don't have a lot of time....this is a meal that is on the list of easy to make that everyone in the family will enjoy. So we typically have it about once a month. It's a staple for us, like spaghetti. It's like a beef stroganoff, but we never called it that growing up. We always had other macaroni/pasta names for it because the beef stroganoff we normally eat looks much different.
It takes less than 30 minutes to prepare and it is something that I almost always have the ingredients for in the pantry/freezer.

Here is a picture of all the ingredients that you'll need:

Here's the recipe:

{{Easy Beef Stroganoff}}

(printer friendly version)

Pasta, your choice (macaroni noodles, egg noodles, cooked to package directions)

1 lb. ground beef (or ground turkey)

salt & pepper to taste

1/2 large onion, diced

1 can cream of mushroom soup

3/4 cup milk

1 1/2 Tablespoon Worchestershire Sauce

First I start a pot of water boiling, with salt added. When the water boils, add the noodles. Brown the meat in a separate large skillet over medium-high heat and season it with the salt and pepper. After the meat has started cooking, add the diced onion. When the meat has cooked through, (take care not to overcook the meat), add the can of cream of mushroom soup, milk and worchestershire sauce. Wisk the ingredients together over medium heat and then heat to a simmer. When the noodles are done, drain off the water and pour the noodles into the sauce. Mix together and serve.

This is what the sauce looks like after everything has been mixed in and it is waiting for the noodles.

I typically serve it up with some green beans or other vegetable on the side.
