Ingredients For Stroganoff

You really don't need many ingredients for this beef stroganoff. I started with an inexpensive cut of meat from Aldi pictured below.

They were thin sirloin steaks used for fajitas and they worked great. You can use any kind of beef you want but make sure that you can cut it into thin strips. You can also make keto beef stroganoff with ground beef!

The other ingredients were mushrooms, olive oil, cream cheese, sour cream and Better than Bouillon Beef base. This stuff is awesome. I use the beef and chicken flavors all the time as they are great for soups but also sauces like this one. I HIGHLY recommend you buy some Better than Bouillon bases as they add so much flavor to with many carbs.

A Note About Low Carb Sour Cream

I ended up using Daisy brand sour cream because it has half as many carbs as other brands so use that if you want to save carbs.

Let's Make Some Keto Beef Stroganoff

First thing you want to do is brown the mushrooms. I like mushrooms that have a bit of color on them so saute them with a little butter then add in the thin strips of beef and sprinkle some salt and pepper.

Once the meat starts to brown, scoop all of that mixture out and set aside. To make the sauce, add the Better than Bouillon, water, garlic and cream cheese. Whisk until the cream cheese melts and the sauce comes together.

Then add back the mushrooms and beef, cover and cook for about 10 minutes until your meat is tender. It may take a longer or shorter time depending on the type of beef you use and how small you cut the strips.

Once the beef is tender, take it off the stove and mix in the sour cream and serve.

Vegetable Noodles To Try With With Dish

I made some cabbage noodles for this dish because I thought they would be a bit like egg noodles. They were fantastic for a low carb noodle substitute for this dish.

I just sautéed them in a little oil until they were soft and browned a bit. The cabbage had a nice noodle texture and a bit of sweetness to go with the rich and savory beef stroganoff.

Other veggie noodles to try would be zucchini or turnip noodles. Or you can use cauliflower rice. I ate some leftover the next day as is and it was delicious too so that's an option as well.

How To Make Cabbage Noodles + Carb Count

To make the low carb cabbage noodles I simply sliced the cabbage to look like noodles and then sautéed them in a tablespoon of oil with a bit of salt and pepper. I did this while I was cooking the stroganoff. Once the cabbage was translucent and browning a bit it was done.

I used 1 tablespoon of oil and ¼ head of cabbage (approx 2 cups) which made 2 servings. The nutritional information for 1 serving was:
82 cals / 6.8g fat / 5.2g carbs / 2.2g fiber / 1.1g protein = 3g net carbs

Recipe Tips & Notes

• If you use Daisy brand sour cream you can save many carbs.
• Whatever type of beef you use, make sure to cut the beef in to very thin, even strips.
• The sauce is very savory and delicious and the Better than Bouillon is a key component so I highly recommend it. If you don't have any, you can use bouillon cubes or beef stock but the Better than Bouillon beef base is my favorite.
• You can serve this beef stroganoff over cabbage noodles (my favorite way), zucchini noodles, cauliflower rice or eat it as is. How to make the cabbage noodles and the carb counts are above in the post.
• If you want to make this with ground beef just substitute ground beef for the sirloin strips and make the recipe as is. Or try Maya's recipe.
