This is another one of my kids’ favorite  meals.  It’s very easy, only takes one pot and is so creamy n good.  It was delicious to eat on this slightly chilly evening!

Beef Stroganoff 

Ingredients:

• 2 lb. cubed beef (stew meat)
• little bit of olive oil
• 3 shallots, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp. sea salt
• 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp. pepper
• 1 tsp. parsley flakes
• 1 c. water
• Family size can cream of mushroom soup + 1 can water
• 1/4 stick butter
• 16 oz. bag extra wide egg noodles
• 2-3 Tbsp. sour cream

In large pan heat olive oil and add shallots.  Brown for a few minutes then add garlic.  Add stew meat. When browned, add water and seasonings.  Cover and simmer on low for about 45 minutes (meat will get really tender!).  Add butter and cream of mushroom soup + water and stir thoroughly.  Add egg noodles and stir again.  Cover once again and cook noodles (about 7-10 minutes).  Stir in sour cream just before serving.
TIP: You can also serve the egg noodles separate.  Just add a half soup can of water to beef instead of a whole can.  Cook noodles separately according to package.  It looks prettier served separately but I was in a hurry.  It tastes superb no matter how you serve it!

Gooooood eatin’!
