Easy Stroganoff

"This is really similar to the hamburger stroganoff recipes that use cream of mushroom soup, but with a few additions and tweaks for my personal taste. When time is an issue, you can just whir the mushrooms, onions and garlic together in the food processor, but the end result is not as visually appealing than when you slice the mushrooms. I find the cream cheese lends a smoother flavor, and not quite as tangy as sour cream...That, and my daughter hates sour cream and wouldn't eat it if she saw me add it."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I was raised in SoCal and currently live in Las Vegas I am a licensed veterinary technician as well as a registered nurse. I grew up in my parents restaurant, so I learned to cook by watching and doing. No recipes, just what the basic ingredients were. I cooked for a while during my teen years and got to make my own creations which was fun, but left the business in '93..many fond memories still remain. I am mom to a wonderful 12 year old daughter who shares my love of cooking, although her tastes run to the exotic (at least for most 12 year olds I know). She loves Japanese, Chinese and and Thai food. Her favorites are Jellyfish and sushi.
