Down Home Cookin'

So, today I was working, and something came over me. I decided I had to eat beef stroganoff, tonight. Not just any beef stroganoff.. Mom's beef stroganoff. This ain't your run-of-the-mill Hamburger Helper. Of course, I had no clue how to make it or even where to begin, so I had to call Mom. I tried to document the process but I was too busy browning meat in the beginning, so I only got the last part. Observe..

I'm not much of a veggie man myself, so Cassie came in to cover that part. She even picked out the green beans.

If you're not too familiar with vegetables, like me, this is what a pan of carrots, peas, and corn looks like. At least that's what I'm told.

I don't know if this is the beef, or the stroganoff, or both.

I couldn't find the right noodles, so I had to settle for Kroger brand extra wide egg noodles.

This is the finished product. We used sectioned plates, but only had two different dishes. So we decided the forks could go in the empty section. (I suggested, chili cheese fritos, a piece of buttered bread, or a banana, but was turned down each time)

Prior to this night I had never attempted such a feat, but overall Cassie and I were very satisfied with the outcome. It wasn't Mom's beef stroganoff, but it definitely hit the spot.
