My recent post Obesity And Metabolism
Hi Heather, love your recipes! I’m looking for a good Beef Stroganoff recipe that doesn’t call for cream of mushroom soup. (Bechemel sauce instead?) Got any suggestions? Also, do you have a beef recipe that comes with a nice gravy to serve with fresh mashed potatoes like beef tips and gravy or Chopped Steak and gravy?
@ajacksonmom Hey, I’m currently on vacation. My stroganoff recipe is at home in South Carolina. I’ll get it up for you when I get home. I keep procrastinating that one as saucy beef pics are a little difficult. However, now that it’s been requested, I just have to do it. And you’ll be relieved to know my version does not contain cream of mushroom.
