Ultimate Beef Stroganoff
Bring a touch of gourmet to your dinner table with this mouthwatering Ultimate Beef Stroganoff recipe! It’s an easy semi-homemade meal with Hamburger Helper
I get the magic text around 3:55 every weekday. It’s the text that says the hubs is on his way to pick me up from work so we can head home. I try to be on the corner as close to 4 as possible; especially lately.
You see, the cherry blossoms are out, which means there’s a trijillion tourists. And all of them are walking around downtown wreaking havoc on our travel time. What usually takes about 50 minutes maybe an hour at most to get home takes almost 90 minutes plus with the cherry blossom festival.
Commuting nightmare.
Enter Hamburger Helper.
Hamburger Helper is that perfect, go to, easy family dinner that we try to keep on hand. One box of Hamburger Helper, one pound of ground beef (or chicken or tuna) some water (and sometimes milk) and you have a ground beef meal on the table in less than 30 minutes. Add a simple tossed salad and you have a GREAT value meal on the table in less than 30.
If you haven’t tried Hamburger Helper lately, what are you waiting for? There’s almost as many flavors as there are tourists in DC right now. Hamburger Helper for everyone. There’s lasagna, bacon cheeseburger, spaghetti, chili mac, stroganoff; a flavor for every taste. And oh so tasty flavors at that!
Not only is Hamburger Helper a quick dinner recipe, it’s also a quality, value meal! I purchased the Ultimate Creamy Stroganoff for a little over $2.19. My pound of 96/4 ground beef was $6.35. That’s $8.84 for four servings. Other types of ground beef cost less, but we’re always looking to cut as much fat from our diet as possible so I went with the 96/4 which made our meals $2.42 each. Two fifty. A serving. For a ground beef meal.

I love Helper! Can't wait to try your coupon formula. Also just got some mushrooms bogo!
The Cheeseburger Mac one has been our favorite for a long time. We add a little garlic salt to it and it is so good!
I love how easy it is for nights that you just need to get something good on the table fast! Thanks Christie!
