Hamburger Stroganoff


Back when I first started this blog, I used to have a quote at the top that said, "If you are what you eat, I'm fast, cheap, and easy."  Well, this recipe fits all those qualities while still being a delicious, comforting, home cooked meal.  Kids love this stuff.  My daughter is going through a phase of severe pickiness, but she pounds down the ol' hamburger strogy.  Plus, it takes about 30 minutes to prepare, sometimes even less.  Ya gotta love that. 

Hamburger Stroganoff

Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (8 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces or 4-8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup butter (You can reduce this or leave it out if you are wanting to cut a few calories.)
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic or 1 clove garlic minced
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 soup can water
1 cup sour cream (can be light)
cooked noodles or rice
snipped parsley (optional)

Directions:
Brown ground beef with onion and mushrooms in the butter until onion is tender.  Stir in flour, salt, garlic, and pepper.  Cook 5 minutes stirring constantly.  Remove from heat.  Stir in soup and water.  Simmer covered for 10 minutes.  Stir in sour cream; heat through.  Serve over cooked noodles or rice.  Sprinkle with snipped parsley.
