Notes
Cuts of Meat to Use in Beef Stroganoff
Sirloin, Ribeye, and Filet are the best cuts of meat to use for beef stroganoff. If you are cooking this on the stove top I recomend using more tender cuts of beef. For the Instant Pot you can use Top Sirloin.
How to Make a Healthy Beef Stroganoff
Our beef stroganoff is healthy because we use cornstarch as a thickener in many of our recipes. I also serve this with whole wheat penne pasta instead of egg noodles which adds 150 calories. While they are about the same amount of calories, the whole wheat pasta is much higher in fiber. Look for a whole wheat past with at least 6g of fiber.Even with added pasta this dish is still under 500 calories!
