Slow-Cooked Beef Stroganoff

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy.

This Beef Stroganoff recipe takes the classic beef stroganoff recipe and turns it into an easy slow-cooker meal. Tender beef, hearty mushrooms and a creamy sauce poured over a bowl of warm egg noodles is the definition of comfort food. It also re-heats well. Read on to enter the giveaway!June is National Dairy Month and I for one am thankful for dairy. Butter, cheese, milk, yogurt; I wouldn’t want to cook without them! It’s also perfect timing for the release of this cookbook that compiles recipes from America’s dairy farmers, The Dairy Good Cookbook.

Great big thank you to all of the families who work hard to produce all the wholesome dairy products that our family enjoys and to Dairy Good for sponsoring this post (as always, the opinions and text are my own).

A little about this cookbook:

*113 everyday, family-friendly recipes shared by the folks who work hard to create the dairy products we love.
*You get a glimpse of the families that produce the dairy products in your fridge. I particularly liked reading about the Lourenzo family from Oregon who get their children involved with their farm. It’s similar to our family’s story (minus the cows, of course). We also love to get the whole family involved with our blog; developing recipes together and giving our son a deeper appreciation for what’s on his dinner plate. The book doubles as a teaching tool to show kids where their dairy products come from.
*The Dairy Good Cookbook is available in stores nationwide or can also be purchased online through Amazon, Barnes and Noble or Indie Bound. 

Through The Dairy Good Cookbook, dairy farmers share their secret (and not so secret) stories, traditions, and family recipes that have been passed down through generations. For a chance to win a copy of The Dairy Good Cookbook and a $75 gift card, share a recipe or dish that celebrates your love of dairy (meaning that the recipe or dish must include cow’s milk, cheese and/or yogurt) as well as a story of how that recipe or dish has been passed down through the generations in your family, or is tied to a special tradition or occasion meaningful to you.
