[Recipe] Hamburger Stroganoff (crock pot recipe)

[Guest guest]

This is a recipe I altered, to deal with our current dietary preferences

(no meat, low fat, low cholesterol). It got mixed reviews. I loved it

– I thought it was rich and creamy and full of flavour. The bf wasn’t

thrilled with it, and said he didn’t like the taste of the fake meat.

The recipe was written for a slow cooker, but I think it would be easy

to prepare it on the stovetop, or in a covered casserole dish in the

oven as well.

 

“Hamburger” Stroganoff

 

2 cups Veggie crumbles, TVP, or other ground beef substitute (I used a

package of Smart Menu ground “beef”)

2 tbsp all purpose flour

1 tsp salt

¼ tsp pepper

1 large onion chopped (about 1 cup)

10 oz condensed cream of celery soup (I used a fat free one)

1 tsp red wine vinegar

2 tbsp orange juice

1 cup sour cream (I used a fat free one)

1 lb fettuccine noodles

 

Scramble fry the veggie crumbles in a non-stick pan. Mix in flour,

salt, pepper, and onion. Stir in soup, vinegar and orange juice. Turn

into 3 ½ litre slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 5 – 6 hrs or on

high for 2.5 – 3 hrs. Stir in sour cream and heat through.

 

Cook noodles as directed on package. Serve stroganoff over noodles.

This sounds really good. I wouldn't give up on the recipe;

there are so many meat-sub alternatives out there and

you are bound to stumble across some that work better in

certain recipes than others.

 

I think if he didn't like the Smart Menu brand TVP, you

might try using the MorningStar Farms burger crumbles

instead. They are found in the freezer section in 12oz.

bags and they have a very pleasant flavor on their own.

Just an idea. I find I am using these a lot more in my recipes

now with very good results and reviews from my meat-eating

family members.
