This mouthwatering Ground Beef Stroganoff is so simple to make, it can be enjoyed for dinner any night of the week.
Easy Ground Beef Stroganoff
Family friendly meals are at the top of our dinner menu. I’m feeding teenage boys now, and they can be impossible to fill up some days. Due to this, I often resort to making dishes that can be made for my hungry eaters but, keep my grocery budget intact as well. When steak prices soar, ground beef can be a cost effective option.
Tips for Making Ground Beef Stroganoff
- Stroganoff is traditionally served over noodles and this ground beef variation is no exception. That said, we also love this equally when ladled over buttered rice or mashed potatoes.
- There are so few ingredients needed to make this dish, make sure you choose a flavor packed steak seasoning for the most tasty end result. You can adjust the salt and include pepper at your discretion.
- You can easily adjust the thickness of the broth by adding more flour dissolved in broth in small amounts or, thinning the liquid further by adding more broth.
- Cook the noodles while the beef simmers and you’ll have dinner ready in no time flat.
- If stroganoff lights your fire, you may also like to checkout my recipe for slow cooked beef stroganoff, topped with a scrumptious horseradish cream sauce.
