My favorite beef stroganoff!

This is another Allrecipes find. I've changed it up a bit.. but man, this is gooood!

BEEF STROGANOFF:
2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into thin strips
1/4c. all purpose flour with salt and pepper
2T. butter, divided
2 large onions, chopped
1 (10.5 ounce) can beef broth (I add more or less depending on how saucy I want it)
1-2t. dried basil
salt and pepper to taste
2c. sliced mushrooms
1T. Worcestershire sauce
1.5c. sour cream
cooked rice or egg noodles

Dredge the meat in flour. In a skillet, melt 1T. butter over medium heat; saute onions until tender. Remove from pan; set aside. Melt remaining butter and brown meat on all sides. Add broth, basil, salt and pepper, mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce and onions. Cook until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Just before serving, stir in sour cream. Heat through, but do not boil. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.

Maple Glazed Salmon & Sweet Potato Gaufrettes

This is a staple in our home. Hope you like it as much as we do!

MAPLE GLAZED SALMON:
1/2c. maple syrup
1/4c. soy sauce
2 cloves garlic
1/2t. garlic salt
1/4t. pepper
4 salmon fillets

Mix together the above ingredients and marinate the fish in it. The recipe says to do this for 30 minutes, but I do it for 8 hours or so. I just think it tastes better that way!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with foil and cooking spray.


I always serve our salmon with sweet potato gaufrettes. So simple and so yummy! For two people I will use one large sweet potato. Clean the sweet potato - no need to peel it! Slice the sweet potato about 1/4 inch thick and put them on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray and throw on some sea salt and fresh ground pepper.

Put the sweet potatoes and fish in the oven for 20 minutes. Your fish will be well done, adjust cooking time so the fish is done to your liking!


Enjoy!
