I love me some colorful food.
You know the old adage, you eat with your eyes first? That’s so true!
I love traditional beef stroganoff. I mean, who wouldn’t? Savory beef is cooked until tender and served in a cream sauce over a bed of fresh pasta. There’s no better comfort food in the world than that in my opinion. But why not add a little pizazz to the bland-colored dish?
This recipe does exactly that! With the addition of some red peppers and peas, this recipe for Holiday Beef Stroganoff is perfect for your holiday table!
What is Stroganoff?
Beef Stroganoff started in Russia in the mid-19th century. It’s a dish that features sautéed pieces of beef in a sour cream sauce.
What Can I Substitute for Pasta?
The great thing about this recipe is just how versatile it is! You could make the meat and sauce put it atop rice, mashed potatoes, or even french fries and it would be delicious!
What Brands Work Best in This Recipe?
First of all, I say don’t go with any ingredients that are fat free – it just won’t taste the same. For the cream cheese, I recommend going with a trusted brand such as Philadelphia® Cream Cheese.
Philadelphia Cream Cheese is made with no artificial preservatives, dyes or flavors, so you know what you’re eating is good quality. You can find Philadelphia® Original Cream Cheese 8 ounces at Walmart on the dairy aisle. I love shopping at Walmart because I can go in, get everything I need from food and toiletries to home décor and wrapping paper all in one store.
