replacement hamburger helper!

[Stef_L 76]

So i used to be obsessed with beef stroganoff hamburger helper so i was playing around and found a decent replacement!

take 1 lb of 90% lean ground beef and brown it.

add 1 cup of peas and 1/2 a bag of baby spinach and sautee it until spinach is cooked.

then mix 98% fat free cream of mushroom Soup w/ 1/4 cup of skim milk and mix until thinned. Add the soup to the other ingredients and simmer together for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it thicken and it tastes amazing! it's all the tastes of hamburger helper with minimal fat and no pasta!

you can season to taste

Thanks for the recipe. I have been trying lots of new recipes too trying to eat better and also keep eating things that taste good. I keep up with all of my calories etc on My Fitness Pal and I was suprised that alot of the recipes on the major websites that i have tried are already on there calculated for me. That has been nice. I have been playing around with lots of new veggie recipes and have enjoyed making Cauliflower Crust pizza (it was really yummy), roasted brussel sprouts, stuffed mushrooms etc. Who knew I could eat tasty stuff and still lose weight and consider myself as eating healthy. I will try this recipe next week after I head to the store. Thanks for the recipe!

Did yu have to strain the oil from the ground beef...

[megansmommy123 57]

Just my personal preference, I always, even before surgery, drain the oil from ground beef. I also rinse it with hot Water, just to get rid of the fat.

Im just going to use lean turkey

I have a severe mushroom allergy, and I make some similar. I use the brown gravy packets (the powder that you mix with Water and boil) and then a good tablespoon of sour cream. It makes perfect stroganoff. Also if you don't want to use ground beef, go to the deli and get some sliced roast beef, just ask them to slice it a little thick. If you really love the mushrooms you can add canned mushrooms my dad does, and loves it that way.

Sooo good. Thanks for sharing. I added a little garlic powder and a teaspoon of Worcester sauce, as I always put that in my old recipe.

This sounds awesome! Thanks!

It works with sliced deli turkey too, I use the jar of turkey gravy, and serve it with mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes.
