Simple Hamburger Stroganoff Recipe

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package egg noodles
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into pieces
  • 1 (6 ounce) can chopped mushrooms, with liquid
  • 1 (.75 ounce) packet dry brown gravy mix
  • 2 (10.5 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 (8 ounce) sour cream
  • cup milk

Directions

  1. Gather all ingredients together to ensure everything is ready for use.
  2. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, cook the egg noodles until tender yet firm to the bite, about 7 to 9 minutes. Drain the noodles and set aside.
  3. While the noodles are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crumbly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease.
  4. Stir in the cream cheese, mushrooms with their liquid, and the brown gravy mix. Continue cooking and stirring for 2 to 3 minutes, until the cream cheese has melted and combined with the other ingredients.
  5. Add the condensed cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and milk to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  6. Drain the cooked egg noodles and stir them into the beef and mushroom mixture. Cook everything together for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, ensuring the dish is heated through.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Beef Stroganoff!

Rewritten review: The recipe provided a solid foundation, but I made some modifications by halving the amounts of cream cheese, sour cream, and soup. I also incorporated garlic and onion into the meat, seasoning with salt and pepper to my liking. The dish turned out wonderfully, with the cream cheese imparting a delicious flavor. My 6-year-old thoroughly enjoyed it, and I found it to be a quick and easy meal to prepare. I will definitely be making this again in the future.

To enhance the flavor of this recipe, I incorporated garlic powder and chopped onion into the hamburger mixture, along with 3/4 cup of red wine. The result was delicious!

This dish was amazing! I made some tweaks by using fresh mushrooms and sautéing them with onions and celery while cooking the meat. I seasoned it with garlic powder, ground pepper, and Worcestershire sauce, and even added a couple of eggs. It turned out to be the best stroganoff I've ever made!

An excellent base recipe that I personalized to suit my preferences :) To start, I diced 3 slices of precooked bacon and heated them in a large pan while I prepared the ground meat. I always opt for the highest quality ground meat within my budget - grass-fed, pasture-raised, and as lean as possible. I chose linguine for the pasta and reserved approximately 1/2 cup of cooking water to replace milk if needed. As the ground meat neared completion, I added a finely chopped small onion and cooked it until translucent. To the mixture, I introduced a dollop of sweet paprika, 1 teaspoon of minced garlic from a jar, 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, and a rounded tablespoon of Beef Better than Bouillon, along with a splash of pasta water to meld the flavors. Following this, I incorporated canned sliced mushrooms, which my husband doesn't prefer, leaving more for me! I utilized 6 ounces of cream cheese, 4 ounces of sour cream, and a can of cream of mushroom soup. To reach my desired consistency, I thinned out the sauce with the remaining pasta water. After combining the pasta with the sauce in the pan and warming it through, I topped it with a generous sprinkling of parsley for garnish. Thank you, Jessica, for sharing your recipe with us!

I started by sautéing onion and garlic before browning the meat. Following advice from other reviewers, I opted to use just one can of soup and half of the cream cheese. Once the cream cheese had melted, I combined the milk, sour cream, and remaining soup with the beef mixture.

This recipe is fantastic! Thank you for sharing! I made a few tweaks... I included seasonings like salt, pepper, beef bouillon, nutmeg, and a touch of sugar. I opted for more sour cream than cream cheese, added onions and garlic to the meat, along with fresh mushrooms. The result was absolutely delicious! I have also tried this with a chuck roast instead (using cream of mushroom soup) cooked in the crockpot. I prepare it before heading to work, and the meat is ready by the time I return home. Then I simply put it all together as per the original recipe. This has quickly become a family favorite!

I followed the recipe exactly, but used frozen mushrooms instead of canned ones. The amount of noodles was overwhelming, and placing them in the same pan as the stroganoff was a mistake - you would need a huge pan to fit everything. Unfortunately, the stroganoff turned out to be quite bland.

I like to use a combination of sour cream and cream cheese in my recipe. I skip the milk and instead add a dash of soy sauce for extra flavor. I season it with onion and garlic powder, pepper, and finely chopped shallots.

Excellent flavor. I substituted Greek Yogurt for the cream cheese.
