PCLinuxOS Recipe Corner Bonus: Hamburger Helper Type Beef Stroganoff

Hamburger Helper Type Beef Stroganoff

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound ground beef
1 packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix
4 1/2 cups water
1 pound bow tie pasta
10 ounces cream of mushroom soup
3/4 cup sour cream

DIRECTIONS:

Brown the ground beef and then drain off fat in a large skillet that has a lid. Add the onion soup mix and water and mushroom soup mix (if you want). Mix well and bring to a boil.

Add the Bow Tie pasta and bring back to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cover. Cook for 10 - 12 minutes. Take off heat and gently stir in the sour cream. Enjoy this quick and delicious version, and you won't go back to the box. If you would like to make more of a meal out of this, add some fresh broccoli or other vegetables.

TIPS:

I suggest that you can go up to 2 pounds of ground beef if you really want a heartier dinner. You may also want to add a couple of small cans of mushrooms to this recipe. You may also want to switch the soup recipe for the Mushroom Soup with Roasted Garlic variety. It would work well too!

If you want a cheesy dish, use cheese instead of sour cream. Throw in some diced tomatoes and really enjoy something nice!
