Do you want to create delicious, wholesome foods for your family, but never seem to have the time to go beyond opening a package and sticking it in the microwave?

Heather at has the desire to help time crunched foodies create the comfort foods they love, in the precious little time they have.

Today, she shares a post on how to make easy beef stroganoff!

This one pot meal is a family favorite, even in the summer. It’s warm and comforting in the cooler weather months, but since it comes together so quickly, I love to make this all year long.

Traditional beef stroganoff is served with mushrooms added, but the boy doesn’t like them. For his sake, I usually leave them out. If you want to add them, add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms with the onions and garlic.
