Beef Stroganoff (Italian Meatball)
"This recipe is simple, easy, versatile, and above all.... delicious! My family LOVES this recipe and it makes a lot which gives us great leftovers for lunch the next day. You can substitute ground beef for meatballs. (Just add some extra italian seasonings.) It really is best with meatballs though."

What a wonderful, quick, tasty meal. I followed recipe with the following changes: I used 8 oz. of noodles instead of 16 oz., which was more than enough; 16 oz. would be way too much with the recipe as written. Added a small amount of garlic powder and hot red ground pepper to pep it up a bit. I did use the 1/4 cup of sour cream, not that it needed to be thinned but to expand the volume of the sauce and bump up the flavor. Precooked frozen meatballs were heated by adding directly to the sauce and heating all together; this worked perfectly. I sauteed the green onion tops and added to sauce with the meatballs. Next time, I'll try it with the optional mushrooms, and there will be a next time. The whole family enjoyed this and asked that I put the recipe in a safe place so I can get to it easily again. Thanks Mama_Jenniefor for sharing your awesome recipe with Food.com formerly Recipezaar for all of us to enjoy! -
Wasn't flavorful. I think that sour cream shouldn't be a suggestion, instead a necessity to make this dish tastier. This was super easy to make though and a good option if you're short on time.

This is a very simple and delicious stroganoff recipe. I used homemade meatballs and added a bit of dill and it was great! -
This was really easy for me put together for my toddler and hubs. Hubs is diabetic so he had the meatballs and sauce over some low carb bread rounds. Healthy, tasty and easy. :) I added some fresh mushrooms which toddler promptly removed. However I enjoyed them. -
The best Stroganoff recipe I've tried. I call this "Mommy's Wacky Meatballs & Noodles" and my 3 year old LOVES it! Thank you for posting.

This one gets five stars if for no other reason it is SO EASY to throw together. We got home late from work tonight and my son was pestering me to get dinner on the table. I found this one in the Zingo cookbook, I happened to have pretty much everything on hand and I had the meatballs and sauce done before the water even boiled. The fact that it tastes good too is just an added bonus!!! Thanks Mama-Jennie, this one goes onto the "dinner in a hurry" list. The only minor change I made was to substitute fresh chives for the green onions (it's what I have growing outside :grin:)
