Cheesy Beef Stroganoff

Cheesy Beef Stroganoff

Monday October 1st, 2012

Today, I decided to cook some dinner.  I know, "Lauren, cook?  Please tell me you had the fire department on speed dial!".  Well, oh sarcastic one, NO!  No fire department involved this time!

I found this recipe out of my 4 ingredient cookbook, and decided even I couldn't mess up that much!  It's a really simple recipe that is quick, and perfect for those nights on the go, and I know a lot of us have nights like that!

Ingredients:

~1 pound of ground beef

~2 cups of water

~3 cups medium egg noodles; uncooked

~3/4 pound Velveeta; cut up (I found it at Sobeys)

~1 can cream of mushroom soup

~1/4 teaspoon black pepper

I know it's over 4 ingredients. But it is still SO simple!

Directions:

Step 1: Brown meat in a large skillet; drain.

Step 2: Stir in water.  Bring to boil.  Stir in noodles. Reduce heat to medium-low;cover.  Simmer 8 minutes or until noodles are tender.

Step 3: Add Velveeta, soup, and pepper; stir until Velveeta is melted.

See? Simple!  I added a bit of extra Velveeta because I normally like really cheesy food, but the extra made it taste quite thick, so I recommend using the exact amount!
