It’s an easy version of a childhood favorite, and I almost always have the ingredients on hand! I get asked for this recipe a lot!– Tina FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: What do you serve with ground beef stroganoff? I always serve ground beef stroganoff on top of egg noodles. Then I like to have a nice vegetable side dish like some Maple Glazed Carrots, or Italian Green Beans. What can you use instead of sour cream in beef stroganoff? You can substitute with plain Greek yogurt. Or you can leave it out if you really don’t like the taste. In this recipe I use cream of mushroom soup so it is plenty creamy without the sour cream. Which ground beef is best for stroganoff? You want to use one that has some fat. That’s where you get good flavor. So I generally use an 85/15 ground beef. You don’t need anything fancy here. Use what is within your budget. How can I add flavor to beef stroganoff? Garlic! Garlic and onion will add so much flavor to any stroganoff recipe. Plus, taste it as you go to make sure you have added plenty of salt and pepper. I find I usually find it needs a bit more pepper. Also, if you enjoy mushrooms, try adding some cooked (or caned) sliced mushrooms to this dish. How do I store leftovers? Leftovers can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing as sometimes the creamier ingredients tend to separate when you go to reheat it. INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) ground beef – if you use a lean meat, you won’t really have any grease to drain. You could also easily make this with ground chicken or turkey. onion – if you don’t like onion, just leave it out. garlic – this recipe works well with freshly minced garlic or the jarred garlic (whichever is easiest or whichever you prefer.) salted butter – you can use unsalted butter. all-purpose flour beef broth – if you want to keep the sodium down, try using low or no salt beef broth. sour cream – this is a love/hate ingredient but it is essential to any stroganoff recipe so I don’t recommend skipping it. You could substitute with plain Greek yogurt or creme fraiche. cream of mushroom (or chicken) soup – I have recipe for Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup and Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup if you prefer homemade. egg noodles HOW TO MAKE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF: Bring a pot of water to boil and begin to cook egg noodles according to package directions. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown ground beef along with the onions and garlic until thoroughly cooked. I like to leave chunks of ground beef and not break it up too small. Drain ground beef to remove excess grease from pan. Put pan back on stove over medium heat (don’t add the ground beef back in yet.) Add butter to pan and let it melt. Then add flour to pan, whisk and let it absorb butter. Now add beef broth and whisk vigorously to remove any lumps, turning the heat up to high, bringing it to a boil for 2-3 minutes until you see it thicken slightly. Bring temperature down to medium and whisk in sour cream and cream of mushroom soup. Stir until mixture is thoroughly incorporated. Add salt and pepper. Keep tasting mixture until it is seasoned the way you like. I probably use a good teaspoon and half or more of salt and pepper. If it gets too thick on you, just add a tad more beef broth. Add ground beef back to mixture. Stir and then allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.  Serve over egg noodles. CRAVING MORE RECIPES?

WASHINGTON, DC—In the wake of the shocking assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, Democratic leaders have issued a heartfelt plea to the Republican Party, or as they’ve now officially dubbed them, the “Stupid, Inbred, Racist Nazi Republicans,” to consider turning down the volume on their rhetoric. The request comes as the nation grapples with yet another tragedy conveniently framed to score political points. Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), speaking from a podium adorned with tasteful rainbow pins, called the assassination “a tragic but entirely predictable outcome of the GOP’s unhinged, hate-filled bile.” She urged Republicans to “maybe try reading a book or two before they open their stupid, Nazi mouths again.” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer echoed the sentiment, adding, “We’re not saying they have to stop being deplorable fascists. Just, you know, do it quieter.” The assassination, carried out by a lone gunman whose manifesto cited “general annoyance” with Kirk’s Twitter presence, has sparked a national conversation about political discourse. Democrats, seizing the moment, have pointed to the incident as proof that Republican rhetoric—described by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as “a dog whistle for violence, but like, a really loud dog whistle”—is directly responsible for the nation’s woes. “If they could just stop being so… violent in their words,” AOC mused, “maybe Democrats wouldn’t get so violent with their actions.” Meanwhile, Republican leaders have responded with characteristic restraint. Senator Ted Cruz, stroking his beard thoughtfully, called the Democrats’ statement “a disgusting attempt to politicize a tragedy, which we would never do.” Cruz then promptly tweeted a meme comparing Pelosi to a Sith Lord, captioned, “Who’s the REAL Nazi?” The post has since garnered 1.2 million likes and a cease-and-desist letter from Lucasfilm. Political analysts are divided on the Democrats’ strategy. Dr. Evelyn Hart, a professor of political science at Georgetown, noted, “Calling half the country ‘stupid, inbred, racist Nazis’ is a bold move. It’s not exactly de-escalatory, but it’s got pizzazz.” Others, like conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, dismissed the plea as “typical leftist hypocrisy,” arguing that “if anyone’s rhetoric is violent, it’s the people calling us Nazis while we’re just trying to enjoy our AR-15s in peace.” As the nation mourns, both sides have vowed to honor Kirk’s memory in their own way: Democrats by pushing for stricter gun control and Republicans by selling limited-edition “Charlie Kirk Freedom Eagle” NFTs. In a rare moment of unity, both parties agreed that the other side is definitely, absolutely, 100% to blame. The post Democrats urge the ‘Stupid, inbred, racist, Nazi Republicans’ to tone down the rhetoric appeared first on Genesius Times.
