Thursday – Hamburger Helper Stroganoff

I grew up eating Hamburger Helper but this homemade version tastes so much better. Making this budget-friendly and classic recipe from scratch allows me to change the pasta, spices, and meat to what I have on hand.

A plate of creamy beef stroganoff with egg noodles, mushrooms, and parsley garnished on top—reminiscent of a homemade Hamburger Helper. A fork is resting on the plate. In the background, there are uncooked egg noodles, a whole onion, and a small bunch of parsley.
