Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef lean, or turkey
- 1 small onion chopped (about 1/2 cup)
- 1 clove garlic finely minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces white mushrooms sliced
- 4 ounces cream cheese cubed, light
- 2 cups beef broth low-sodium
- ½ cup milk lowfat
- 3 tablespoons flour
- ½ cup sour cream light
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- egg noodles cooked, for serving
- rice cooked, for serving
Instructions
- In a large nonstick skillet, cook the meat, onion, garlic, salt and pepper, on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to break up the meat into small pieces, until the meat is almost cooked through but still slightly pink, about 5 minutes. Drain excess grease. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms are soft and browned and the meat is cooked through, another 5 minutes or so.
- Add the cubed cream cheese and let the cream cheese melt over medium heat, about 2-3 minutes, before stirring in. Mix gently until the cream cheese is incorporated throughout the meat mixture. In a large liquid measuring cup, combine the beef broth and milk. Whisk in the flour until the mixture is smooth and there are no lumps of flour remaining.
- Stir the beef broth/milk mixture into the meat and cook over medium or medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Let the mixture bubble and simmer until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes. Stir in the sour cream and add additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve over cooked egg noodles or hot, cooked rice. Sprinkle each serving with fresh parsley, if desired.
