Yummy Beef Stroganoff
Beef Stroganoff was something that my Mom made quite often when we were growing up. I have only made it a few times and I’ve been trying to figure out why. I’m torn between I forget about it and all that sour cream is not good for a girl’s figure, but, nonetheless I made it today.
My Mom’s recipe was actually hamburger stroganoff and it called for lots of things I’m too lazy to go get out of my pantry…it’s such a long 3 steps from my crockpot to the pantry. I used beef tips, the kind you use in stew and I omitted things like onions (’cause my kids don’t like them) and paprika (’cause I wasn’t sure it was worth the 3 steps). So, my recipe is truly a Lazy Mom’s recipe and my measurements aren’t precise. You can’t go wrong here.
First, I browned 2 pounds of beef tips and put them in the crockpot.
Second, I sauteed 1 package of fresh sliced mushrooms. My kids won’t be happy about this. They will take a great big bite thinking that it is beef and then tell me the meat tastes funny. You might want to leave these out, but I think it helps tremendously with the flavor. Tell your kids to pick around them. It’s good for their character! Go ahead, dump them in the crockpot.
Next I dumped about 12 oz. or so of sour cream on top along with 2 cans cream of chicken soup. You could use cream of mushroom if you omit the fresh mushrooms.
Cook on low for 4 hours or so.
Serve over egg noodles. 
Throw some canned peaches next to them and you’ve got yourself a meal!!!
