Beef Stroganoff
"I adore this Beef Stroganoff. Most recipes I see use sour cream and/or a can of soup - neither of which I'm a big fan of. For a long time I just didn't make Beef Stroganoff because I craved something a little more rich and decadent. This took the prize. Adapted from a recipe I found in a Montessori School cookbook."

Excellent! At the last minute I realized I was out of sour cream, so I went looking for a recipe using cream cheese, and this did not disappoint. I used a little less and may even try only 4 oz next time because it was plenty rich. I'll also cut back on the milk to keep a thicker consistency. My husband kept raving about the flavor of the sauce, so this is definitely a keeper. Canned mushrooms (drained) worked great but I'll fresh when I have them. -
Oh yes, I agree with your description. This was absolutely delicious! I used fresh sliced mushrooms and I did add a bit more mustard than was stated to get the extra kick in the sauce. I will surely make this again! Thank you for sharing. :) -
I thought I'd try this instead of my tried and true recipe, thinking it would produce a superior creaminess. Unfortunately, we found this recipe quite bland, and couldn't even finish it. It's a great idea, but I think it needs some tinkering with the spices. -
Delicious!! Very easy to make. I would highly recommend this receipe. I have given it out to many!!
