Homemade Hamburger Helper Beef Stroganoff

Each week as I’m deciding what recipes I want to make and what groceries I need to get I ask my husband what he’s in the mood for. This weekend he suggested I try to make a homemade version of Hamburger Helper Beef Stroganoff! Truthfully, I had never even had the Hamburger Helper version, but I was up for the challenge. The difference between a traditional beef stroganoff and the Hamburger Helper version is the meat. The traditional version has cuts of beef, while the Hamburger Helper version uses ground beef. I decided to stick with that for my recipe! I added in more vegetables and the homemade sauce was really easy to make. I think this will become a new staple meal in our home, it’s absolutely delicious and I hope you enjoy it too!

Notes

You will need a deep skillet for this recipe to mix everything together. If you do not have one you can prepare the meat, vegetables, and sauce and pour it over the pasta in a separate bowl at the end.
