Instructions
- Combine the beef stew, sour cream, instant minced onions, and hot buttered noodles; mix well.
- Heat the mixture slowly until bubbling, but do not let it boil.
- Serve over noodles and garnish with parsley.
Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier texture, consider adding a bit of cream cheese or using Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. If you prefer a bit of a kick, sprinkle in some paprika or a dash of hot sauce. Instant minced onions can be swapped with fresh onions, but sauté them first to enhance their flavor. This dish also pairs beautifully with Grandma'S St. Louis Sloppy Joes for a hearty meal.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the stew stroganoff over the hot buttered noodles, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color. This dish goes well with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal. Pair it with crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce or enjoy it alongside a glass of red wine to complement the flavors.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, gently warm in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking, until heated through. You can also microwave it in short intervals, stirring in between, to ensure even heating.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh beef instead of canned beef stew?
Yes, you can use fresh beef. Brown the beef in a pan, then add broth and simmer until tender before mixing in the sour cream and other ingredients. This will give you a fresher flavor and allow for custom seasoning.
What can I substitute for sour cream?
If you're looking for a substitute for sour cream, consider using plain Greek yogurt or a mix of cream cheese and milk for a similar tangy flavor. Both options will maintain the creamy texture of the dish.
Is there a vegetarian version of stew stroganoff?
Absolutely! Substitute the beef stew with a hearty vegetable stew or mushrooms for a meaty texture. You can also use vegetable broth and add in your favorite vegetables like carrots, peas, and potatoes to create a delicious vegetarian version.
