Welcome!

We are two chicks who decided to share some fun with food!
We plan on choosing some recipes and having a bit of fun with them! Sara will make the original recipe and maybe have some low-fat options and I, Dawn will take the recipe and tweak it if I can to become kidney and diabetic friendly (because, yes, I am both diabetic-type 2 and have PKD). Hopefully we will share some delicious and healthier versions of our recipes!

BEEF STROGANOFF

  • 2 new york strip steaks, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 2 cooking onions, sliced (1/4 inch thick) and separated into rings
  • 227g package sliced mushrooms
  • 1-3/4 cups beef broth
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 cup low-fat sour cream
  • 454g box pasta (I used rotini)
Cook pasta according to package directions.  Drain and set aside.

Mix beef broth, mustard, paprika and garlic powder together.  Set aside.

Brown beef in a large pan, in one tablespoon olive oil.  Remove from pan.  DO NOT DRAIN!

Place mushroom and onion in pan, and saute until soft, but not brown.  Return beef to pan with broth and simmer 10-15 minutes until beef in no longer pink.

Gently stir in sour cream and heat through.  DO NOT BOIL!

Stir in cooked noodles and serve.

Makes 6-8 servings

If desired, one pound stew beef could be used in this recipe.  Just brown the beef and place with other ingredients (except sour cream and noodles), and cook on low for 6-8 hours until beef is tender. 
Then stir in sour cream and noodles.
