There are just some foods I can’t get down with.  Mushrooms is one of those dreaded foods that I am always so disappointed to find in my dishes.  I don’t mind the flavor but that texture … nah! So imagine my happiness when I realized I can make an easy beef stroganoff recipe without mushrooms. Better yet, I can write the best beef stroganoff recipe using ground beef and make that Ground Beef Stroganoff  ready to hit the dinner table in under 30 minutes.  Life is good, my friends.

WHAT IS BEEF STROGANOFF?

Beef Stroganoff is a mid-19th-century Russian dish of sautéed beef served in a sour cream sauce. Although there are many variations of the beef stroganoff recipe, over time it has become commonplace to include mushrooms and often cream of mushroom soup and serve the beef stroganoff over pasta.

CAN YOU FREEZE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF?

Ground Beef Stroganoff is a perfect dish to freeze. To make Ground Beef Stroganoff ahead of time, follow the instructions for the meat sauce and allow it to cool.Transfer the Ground Beef Stroganoff into a large zip-lock bag, removing the air as you seal. Lay bag flat in your freezer to save on space and freeze for up to 3 months. To serve, simply defrost in the refrigerator and warm in skillet over medium heat until hot.  Serve with pasta.

HOW DO I MAKE 30 MINUTE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF?

Easy! Start your Ground Beef Stroganoff by setting a large pot of salted water to boil and browning a pound of ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once cooked, drain the grease and set meat aside.  Add butter to the pan and once melted, add in the chopped onion.  Cook onion for 2-3 minutes and then add in the minced garlic.  Cook for anther minute and then add in the flour and whisk together.  Pour in 3 cups of beef stock and whisk together.  Add in salt, pepper, Worcestershire, Dijon mustard and spices and stir to combine.  Bring to boil, stirring often.  Once boiling, combine the last cup of stock and cornstarch together and pour into skillet, stirring to combine.  Lower heat to simmer and add meat back into sauce.  Once water comes to boil, cook pasta based on manufacturer instructions.  Once pasta has cooked and has been drained, add the Parmesan and sour cream to the Ground Beef Stroganoff  sauce and stir to combine.  Serve Ground Beef Stroganoff sauce over pasta and garnish with parsley or chives.

    Could you use ground turkey instead of ground beef? Excited to try it but no ground beef available at our nearest stores and I’ve got some turkey I need to use.

      Absolutely Liz, you can substitute Turkey and even ground chicken for the beef. Hope this helps.

    I finally decided to to give stroganoff a try and found your recipe. My boyfriend ate two bowls and wanted more but was stuffed! Is the sauce freezer friendly?

      Hi Helen! I am so glad he liked it.. it’s one of my favorites too 🙂 Yes, you can freeze it. Transfer it to a large ziplock bag, squeeze out any excess air and pop it in your freezer. When you need it, remove it from the freezer and either let it thaw in the fridge or transfer it to a cooking pan and reheat over medium/medium-high heat until warm. Enjoy!

    Your stroganoff looks fantastic! Although I love mushrooms my sons do not, so I’m so happy I’ve come across this mushroomless recipe!

    Simple, fast version of a classic dish – just right for a weeknight dinner! OK, so I admit, I am a mushroom fan – but it’s easier for me to add them than for you to remove them! LOL

    Your version of beef stroganoff sounds especially delicious! No yucky cream of mushroom soup here. I love the fresh real ingredients. More wholesome and flavorful. I’ll pin this one for later.

    I totally love mushrooms, although my other half , like you, can’t stand the texture of them. He always says that the idea of eating ‘fungus’ puts him off 🙂 He’s a fussy eater! Anyway, your version of stroganoff looks great, that sauce looks so creamy, I will happily eat it, even knowing there are no mushrooms in it!
