Two weekends ago, my husband made round steak with homemade gravy for dinner which turned out to be a little dry. I had considered using it in pot pie, but I didn’t think that would solve the dryness issue. After consulting The Use-It-Up Cookbook: A Guide for Minimizing Food Waste
Quick Beef Stroganoff
from The Use-It-Up Cookbook: A Guide for Minimizing Food Waste
Ingredients
3 T. flour
2 cups cooked beef, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup water
1 (10.75 oz) can cream of chicken or mushroom soup
4 ounces canned mushrooms, drained
1 cup sour cream
Method
Put the flour and pepper in a dish, and drop the sliced beef into the mixture to coat the beef.
Brown the beef in a large skillet and then add onion and garlic. Saute until the onions are translucent. Add water to the mixture and stir to loosen the bits on the bottom of the skillet.
Add soup and mushrooms. Heat until the mixture is warmed thoroughly. Just before serving, add the sour cream.
Notes
Instead of soup, I used the gravy thinned with a little water. Instead of canned mushrooms, I used mushrooms already sauteed in butter from the freezer.

The cookbook sounds like an excellent resource, as I have been known to mess up a lot of meals that need redemption or at least repurposing.
Thanks for linking to Food on Fridays and offering this quick and easy stroganoff solution!

I love it because you can look for something according to an ingredient or you can look for an all purpose recipe like a casserole. Each ingredient has a list of quick ways to use it up along with a few recipes that require a bit more time.
Looks delish.
We’d love you to share your recipes with us at
