This is one of my husband's favorite recipes! I changed almost everything in it, but I followed the basic outline. I substituted ground turkey for the beef, rotini for the egg noodles, and 2 cups fat free yogurt for the sour cream (yogurt gives the stroganoff a bit more tang). I significantly increased the garlic and worcestershire sauce and slightly increased the seasoned salt. I left out the mushrooms and reduced the milk. I think my changes make the recipe a bit healthier and more flavorful. Make sure you cook the meat with the seasonings instead of adding them after you brown it so that the meat takes on their flavor.
Stroganoff doesnt have a reputation for being jammed-packed full of flavor, but here are some suggestions that helped! I used a suggestion from another stroganoff review: Date Posted:

It came out ok, but next time I will add the entire pint of sour cream. I only used half because of reviews I read and it was like putting seasoned ground beef over pasta. No sauce at all!! I also added two cubes of beef buillon to the water when cooking the pasta, and had to add 1/4 cup of milk,two tablespoons of worcestchire sauce, and 3 dissolved cubes of beef buillon to the meat mixture for flavor. I now see why some said this dish was very bland. Adding these things helped. I will make this again, but you really have to adjust the spices to make it taste good.
END OF REVIEW
I would like to add:
I used a pound and half of beef with a 12oz pack of noodles. And i did use all of a 16 oz sour cream. (But that is how our family prefers it,,, meaty for my husband and more creamy sauce for the 4 year old) For everyone else i do suggest the rest, in addition to TARAROD's review, I added a little onion, more garlic, Emeril's original seasoning, a bit more seasoning salt than called for and touch of soy sauce to the ground beef in the skillet.
my family rated it 4/5 stars for a stroganoff dish!
If you are looking for something that is FULL of flavor this is not it. If you are looking for creamy comfort-food you will love it. I've made it twice now and everyone always goes back for seconds. It's even good the next day.
This recipe states 10 3/4 cup of milk. I know that must be a typo but others may not know.
This was the best! I wanted to add onion to the ground beef but I didn't have any onion. I used a packet of onion and mushroom soup/gravy powder. Added that to the ground beef with about a cup of water. And then went on to simmer all other ingredients. It was definitely a favorite! It sure made a lot too!
I added the sour cream in at the last minute and mixed it all together in a VERY large Tupperware container so it would be ready to be put into the fridge since there was so many leftovers! Great recipe!
Yummy comfort food! I made some changes to make this a little more friendly calorie / fat / sodium wise. I used whole wheat egg noodles (12 oz package) 1 bag of Boca Meatless Ground Crumbles 2 Tbsp (or to taste) Low Sodium Worcestershire sauce left out the seasoned salt used 99% fat free cream of mushroom soup 1 soup can of skim milk and low-fat sour cream. I also cooked my crumbles and garlic with a pan sprayed with Pam to prevent sticking. My husband gave it AAA and said he would definitely eat it again.
This was awesome! This was the first time I had ever made stroganoff and we loved it. I made it for guests and I used 2 pounds of ground beef. Fresh mushrooms and onion too. I didn't have to add anymore soup or milk even w/ the 2 pounds of meat. I will definitely make it again!
Everybody approved but it's really just homemade Hamburger Helper stroganoff.
Everytime I make this everyone oohs and aahs over it! I put it over whole wheat wide egg noodles and it was yummy!
