Easy Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff

What's easier then throwing ingredients into the slow cooker and let it handle the work the rest of the day??
 
I've got an amazing recipe for Beef Stroganoff, that has become a family favorite!! And did I mention it's easy to prepare!?
 
With this meal, you can throw it together at night put it in the fridge, and it's ready for you to put in slow cooker while your racing for work (or getting the kids ready for school)
 
 
 
These are the ingredients needed.
 
2 Packs of Beef Stroganoff Seasoning Mix
2 Large sized containers of Sour Cream
Family Pack size Boneless Beef for Stew
Large bag of Medium Egg Noodles
 
 
I start off by cutting the beef chunks into smaller sections. This is optional, but I think this gives the stroganoff more meat pieces.
 
Then you scoop the meat into the slow cooker and add water and both stroganoff seasoning mixes.
 


 
To get a thicker sauce, add just enough water to barely cover the top of the meat. For thinner sauce you can add more water.
 
Stir the Stroganoff mix in with the water and meat and allow it to cook on high heat for at least 8 hours.
 
 
Ok so your home from work, the house is smelling amazing and it's getting closer to eat.
 
Next step is to stir in both Sour Creams and allow it to thicken up while your boiling your noodles.
 
I didn't take pictures of the noddle cooking part. So, boil your noodles until tender drain and add them to your stroganoff.
 
For extra flavor, I add in some Seasoning Salt and Pepper. This is optional and of course you can pick and choose any desired seasonings of choice :]
 

 
 
And there you have it! I hope you enjoy this dinner as much as my family has!
