Growing up my mom used to always make beef stroganoff because it was my brothers favorite meal. There are times where I really crave it, however I am living on a college kid budget and can not afford the best meat. I was looking online for variations and saw some with ground beef. I used a little bit of my moms recipe and made my own. I have to see this was much cheaper then hers, a completely different taste but it was AWESOME. I will be sharing this with my mom and definitely be making this in the near future.
