Round steak & mushroom stroganoff is always a hit. There is something about this flavor combination that just won’t let you put your fork down!
My mother-in-law gave me this stroganoff recipe almost 30 years ago (that’s a long time) in a cookbook made by the ladies of her church. The cookbook was a fundraiser with favorite recipes from the congregation inside. This is certainly a book I have treasured.
I wasn’t a big fan of stroganoff growing up. To be honest, the only kind of stroganoff I had ever tried was in the school cafeteria…enough said.
