🥄Variations

  • Use ground beef. It is often less expensive than tenderloin and it is about the same points.
  • Use ground turkey. You can use ground turkey breast, which is 0 points. The creamy sauce will keep it from tasting dry.
  • Don’t like cream of mushroom soup? Substitute it with chicken broth.
  • Serve it with rice or mashed potatoes instead of egg noodles.

🍽️ What to Serve With

🍶 Storing

Refrigerator Storage: Let the beef stroganoff cool before transferring it to an airtight container. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Freezer Storage: Store it in a tightly sealed freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 3 months. If the sauce separates when thawed, just stir together well and add more yogurt, fat-free half and half, or fat-free milk.

Reheat: When ready to eat, defrost overnight in the refrigerator and reheat on the stovetop or microwave

💭Top Tips

  • Don’t overcook the meat. The Instant Pot does a great job of tenderizing and cooking it quickly.
  • Use high-quality ingredients. The Instant Pot cooks everything quickly and efficiently, so using good ingredients means that they won’t be cooked away while cooking in the pot.
  • Don’t forget to season! Adding salt and pepper adds flavor.

❔FAQs

What can I use instead of Greek yogurt in beef stroganoff?

There are several things that you can add in place of fat free Greek yogurt. Most people use sour cream in a beef stroganoff recipe. You can also use fat-free cream cheese or fat-free cottage cheese.

How do you keep the yogurt from curdling in beef stroganoff?

Sometimes yogurt will curdle if it is added to hot liquid directly. To prevent this, temper the yogurt by adding a little of the hot cooking liquid to it. Then add the yogurt to the pan.

Can I make this without the Instant Pot?

Yes. You can make this on the stovetop. Just brown the beef in a skillet, add the remaining ingredients and simmer for about 40 minutes until everything is cooked through. Adjust seasonings as needed.

How Many WW Points in this Recipe

Typical beef stroganoff comes in at 22 points according to WW. That is because it is full of cream and sour cream. This version is using fat-free ingredients and Greek yogurt instead of sour cream which helps the recipe comes in at 8 points with noodles.
