Beef Stroganoff Casserole
This easy, flavorful one-dish-meal is bound to become a go-to for cozy dinners and family gatherings. The beef gets tender as it simmers with mushrooms and shallots, creating a satisfying, hearty meal. By lowering the power level during cooking, the noodles absorb the savory beef stock, ensuring deep, rich flavor in every bite.
