Gluten free beef stroganoff with cream of mushroom soup

Stroganoff is one of those comfort food meals that I have always loved. It's one of my favorite meals and will be a meal your whole family will love! Traditional beef stroganoff recipes are usually made with heavy cream, cream of mushroom soup, and a lot of questionable ingredients. Good thing is, this easy recipe uses clean ingredients like dairy free sour cream, beef broth, coconut aminos, and dijon mustard to make a super flavorful sauce. Also, using gluten free pasta like Jovial's gluten free egg noodles makes this recipe completely gluten free and dairy free.

Ingredients

Gluten free beef stroganoff with cream of mushroom soup

Sour cream- I use this dairy free sour cream from Kite Hill and it is amazing. I haven't tried another brand of dairy free sour cream but any brand will work just fine. I get this brand at Whole Foods but I think you can find it at Sprouts and some Target stores.

Substitutions

Sour cream- If you can't find dairy free sour cream, you can use coconut cream to keep this recipe dairy free. Another option is plain greek yogurt if you don't mind the dairy.

Arrowroot flour- You can use tapioca flour instead of arrowroot flour. I have also tested this recipe using 1 tablespoon gluten free flour and it works great!

Ground beef- You can substitute ground beef for ground bison or even ground turkey. My personal favorite way to make this recipe is with ground bison. Ground bison can be found in most grocery stores and even at Costco.

Beef broth- If you don't have beef broth you can use chicken or vegetable broth. Changing the broth won't give you that great beef flavor, but it will do in a pinch.

Pasta- I like using jovial's gluten free egg noodles, but you can use their cassava flour pasta to make this Paleo friendly. You can also use zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice to make this Whole30 friendly.

Step by step

  1. Cook the pasta according to the box's instructions.
  2. In a large skillet melt ghee, olive oil, or coconut oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Chop the mushrooms and dice the onions.
  4. Add the chopped mushrooms and diced onions to the melted ghee and cook for 4-5 minutes.
  5. Add the ground beef, salt, and pepper to the mushrooms and onions and cook until browned, about 7-8 minutes.
  6. While the meat is cooking, mince the garlic and then add it to the browned meat and cook for 2 minutes.
  7. In a small bowl stir together the beef broth, coconut aminos, and arrowroot flour, and then add it to the ground beef.
  8. Cook the sauce until it has thickened, about 4-6 minutes.
  9. Once the sauce has thickened, mince the parsley and add it along with the sour cream to the sauce.
  10. Turn the heat off and stir the sour cream in until it has fully melted and combined.
  11. Toss the cooked pasta noodles in the sauce and serve, or place noodles in a bowl and top with the sauce.

Frequently asked questions

How can I thicken beef stroganoff without flour?

You can thicken beef stroganoff with arrowroot or tapioca flour. You can also use corn starch.

Does beef stroganoff contain gluten?

Traditionally beef stroganoff is served with egg noodles, which aren't gluten free. I use gluten free egg tagliatelle but any gluten free wide noodle will work or even zucchini noodles.

Storing

If you plan to make this and have leftovers, be sure to toss your cooked pasta with a little avocado oil before adding it to the sauce.

You can store this in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

What can I substitute for cream of mushroom in beef stroganoff?

Sour cream is a good option for recipes that use cream of mushroom soup specifically for texture, rather than flavor. For example, beef stroganoff or a creamy sauce for meatballs. Some brands of sour cream are quite a bit thicker than soup.

How can I thicken beef stroganoff without flour?

If you want to thicken beef stroganoff without flour, use cornstarch instead. You can also use full fat sour cream - slightly more of it than the recipe calls for. Taste and adjust the flavors as needed.

What is stroganoff sauce made of?

Sauce Ingredients: Butter, onion, garlic, white wine, beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, flour and plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream) are the ingredients used to make classic beef stroganoff sauce. If you prefer not to cook with wine, feel free to just add in a little extra beef stock instead.

Can I substitute chicken broth for beef broth in beef stroganoff?

Ground Beef Stroganoff Recipe Tips: If you don't have white wine, you can leave it out and add a splash more chicken broth. Beef broth can be used instead of chicken broth, but I like the lighter flavor that chicken broth adds.
