Cook Notes

  • Ground Beef: Use 80/20 ground beef for the best flavor and moisture. You can substitute with ground turkey or chicken if desired.

Add 8 oz sliced mushrooms to the skillet when cooking the onions for an extra earthy flavor.

2. Spicy Beef Stroganoff Casserole

Add 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños for a bit of heat.

Add 1 cup frozen peas or chopped spinach to the beef mixture before combining with the noodles for added vegetables.

Serving Suggestions

  • Garlic Bread: Serve with garlic bread or dinner rolls to soak up the creamy sauce.
