French Onion Beef Stroganoff Casserole Ingredients
The ingredients for a beef stroganoff casserole are very similar to the ingredients in this beef stroganoff casserole. Since we have freezer beef, ground beef is always on hand to make a quick pasta casserole.
Ground Beef. The ground beef I used in this recipe was a 90/10 ground beef. If you use an 80/20 ground beef, you may want to drain the fat off the ground beef before mixing with the rest of the ingredients.
Wide Egg Noodles. A bag of wide egg noodles is always in the pantry at my house. If you don’t have egg noodles, macaroni, penne, or even bow-tie pasta could work.
Onion. One large sweet onion, diced.
Sour Cream. For this recipe, I used regular sour cream, but low-fat might work just fine.
Cream of Mushroom Soup. The good, old standard in casserole cooking is cream of mushroom soup.
Onion Soup Mix. One package of onion soup mix adds more flavor than all the seasonings in the cabinet.

A working mom of two very active teenagers. My husband and I gave up running the 80-cow dairy farm that also included a couple of hundred acres of corn and soybeans to both work to support the agricultural industry. We still have about 20 head of dairy heifers and cows to help my kids appreciate the effort it takes to raise livestock. I consider myself a foodie as I love cooking and experimenting with recipes. My family just wishes I would make the same thing twice. Find my other blog, FarmWifeDrinks.com for all things cocktails.
