Dear Friends and Family,
I thought it would be great to have a place online where we could share our favourite dinner ideas. I find it really hard to come up with new easy dinner options. This way we can all get ideas from each other.

Beef Stroganoff

So Myra and I were at Safeway last night, I was at a loss what to make and therefore what to buy, so we cracked open a featured cookbook (don't remember which one) and pulled out a recipe for Beef Stroganoff. I didn't quite make it to recipe requirements, but pretty close! (no sour cream, but easily added).

In Teflon pan fry:

2 small onions
2-3 cloves garlic
oil

Fry together till onions are translucent

Brown 1 lb ground beef with onion mixture; make sure to drain off excess fat.

Add:
1 can drained mushrooms
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can milk

Add appropriate seasonings:
pepper
oregano
Mrs. Dash seasoning (any sort of seasoning)
parsley

Stir together.

Add 1 -1 1/2 cups pasta (fusilini)
apx 1-1 1/2 cups water to make sure there's enough water for the pasta to cook.
Cover. Simmer on low for apx 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it, make sure it has enough liquid and stir it occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn on the bottom.

Enjoy! You can add sour cream as well, but I really liked it just with the milk!
