I wanted to try something other than my tried-and-true, very simple recipe that Mama used to make. I was SO not loving the golden mushroom thing! After the first meal, I did not eat the rest. Maybe this is what others grew up with for Beef Stroganoff, but I did not care for this. Usually I don't write negative reviews...but I don't want others misled like I was. Sorry, Jessica...

Made this for breakfast this morning...I live in Utah, so adjusted recipe for high altitude, and it was THE BOMB!!!!! See the picture I took...my hubby and I devoured half of it for breakfast! Yum! I'm not a big baker, but I will CERTAINLY be making this again!

This is the perfect meal to warm you up on a cold winter day! Rather than add the flour at the end, I put it into a ziploc bag, added salt, pepper and garlic powder, then shook the stew beef in it. Threw it all in the pot with the olive oil and browned the beef that way, first, then added the remaining ingredients. Followed other suggestions - 2 cups beef broth and 1 cup wine. Use whatever kind of mushrooms are on sale. Used quick cooking barley - doubled up. Added a can of peas with their juice, which gave it a nice little depth. The longer you cook it, the better it is!
