This Simple Beef Stroganoff uses leftover roast beef or pot roast to make a super simple meal that is flavourful and incredibly easy! It is made from scratch (no canned soup here!) with ingredients you probably have on hand already! Serve with a side salad and you have a simple, easy, and healthy meal on the table in less than half an hour!
Beef Stroganoff is one of those comforting meals that is sure to satisfy the whole family, without breaking your back. It is easy to make but even more so when you use leftover roast!
Whenever we have leftover beef from our last roast, this recipe is one of our favourite go-to’s! I am not a huge fan of leftover roast beef and so finding a way to repurpose it and transform it into something delicious again is essential in avoiding food waste.
Many of the recipes for Beef Stroganoff use up canned soups to help make the sauce. You won’t find that here. Making the sauce from scratch is so easy and quick, there really isn’t any need to do that.
The recipe for Simple Beef Stroganoff below is one I have been using for awhile now. My original recipe below includes mushrooms because mushrooms are generally a must in stroganoff. That said, I did omit them from our dish as I have recently developed a sensitivity to them which I hope to overcome soon.
Hope you give this simple, made from scratch recipe a try and love it as much as we do! Bon appetit!
