Cast Iron Beef Stroganoff

Left overs make meals easier. Check out this cast iron beef stroganoff recipe made easy with left over  pot roast.

We had left over cooked beef and made this beef stroganoff in my grandma’s old cast iron skillet.  If you are looking for something different to make for dinner, this is the perfect recipe.

This stroganoff is perfect for leftovers. It reheats really well, so it’s great to pack up for work the next day. It’s also cozy and comforting enough to make for a simple date night at home.

Can I use Prime Rib Meat?

Using prime ribis a great way to use leftover meat. I hope you got it on sale.

Can I Make it Without Mushrooms?

Absolutely. Leave them out or swap in onions, peas, or even spinach.

What Can I Use Instead of Sour Cream?

Plain Greek yogurt works well. Cream cheese can also create a rich, creamy sauce.

Why Did My Sour Cream Curdle?

The heat was too high. Lower the heat before stirring it in, and don’t let the sauce boil after adding it.

You can use egg noodles or what noodles you have on hand.  Our video and pictures show Fettuccini noodles.  You can break them into smaller pieces if desired.

What Do You Serve With Beef Stroganoff?

Egg noodles are classic, but rice, mashed potatoes, or even buttered pasta work beautifully.
