- 1/2 pounds lean ground beef or turkey
- 1 small onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
- 1 clove garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 8 ounces sliced white button mushrooms
- 4 ounces light cream cheese, cubed
- 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1/2 cup lowfat milk
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 cup light sour cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooked egg noodles or rice for serving
Directions
- 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.
