Creamy Easy Beef Stroganoff Recipe

This Easy Creamy Beef Stroganoff Recipe is one that I just recently made for the first time! I have to say I had not ever had beef stroganoff until I went off to college in the school cafeteria.  Don’t ask me why but I always thought it was a lot hard to make then it is, and thankfully all three kids loved it as well, well minus the mushrooms..  (I have included links to some great products that I have bought on my own to make my journey easier. You can buy them too through my online sales links, these links will earn the site a small commission) 

I picked up some sirloin steak at the store since it was on sale, so it made this a practical meal for the budget as well.  Now I do have to say my oldest was so excited for dinner just because of the egg noodles. Oh to be 13 to again and have something like that show whether or not I will like a meal! Now I have to say Homemade Beef Stroganoff so beats college cafeteria food, and I really think making Beef Stroganoff with sour cream was really the way to go!

Creamy Easy Beef Stroganoff Recipe Directions :

Start a pot of water boiling  

Slice up your beef if needed into one inch cubes.  Now a good knife is a must have in any kitchen! I picked up this Aicok Knife (HERE)for under $10, but it’s keeps going out of stock often on Amazon due to how awesome it is.  There are a lot of other top rated knives on Amazon at a great price.  I am not the best at picking out Knives so when I can read reviews to find a good quality knife it’s a win for me.

In the skillet drop in your steak  and cook until light brown 

*Keep 1/3 cup of beef broth off the side for finishing the meal

Cover with a lid and simmer for about 15 minutes 

Once the noodles are done coat them with butter 

Blend together the 1/3 cup beef broth with the flour in a small bowl

Lower the heat and add in the mushroom and onions into the skillet 

Stir in the sour cream to make the mixture creamy 

Serve over the egg noodles, we mixed everything together into a big pot to mix into one big dish
