Easy Beef Stroganoff

It's been a long day and I am starving. My dinner choices was either a Home Run Inn frozen pizza or this. I know the pizza is processed but I do have my weaknesses and this brand of pizza tastes just like the ones I eat in Chicago so if I am really hungry sometimes we will eat one. Luckily I had thawed out ground beef (grass fed from the local market) so I was forced into cooking. This recipe is quick and easy and I'm always happy that I cooked after I am done.


1 (12 ounce) package egg noodles, cooked and drained
6 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 onion, chopped
1/4 cup butter
2 pounds lean ground beef
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef broth
1 cup sour cream
salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in boiling water until done, about 8 minutes. Drain.

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a large skillet, cook mushrooms and onions in 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until soft; remove from pan.

Using the same pan, melt remaining butter. Cook ground beef in melted butter until browned. Mix in flour. Stir in beef broth, and cook until slightly thickened.

Add mushroom and onion mixture; stir in sour cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until sauce is hot, but not boiling. Serve sauce over egg noodles.
