WHAT TO SERVE WITH BEEF STROGANOFF?
My family enjoys eating it over egg noodles. We just love the way the sauce clings to the noodles. It is so good. I always include a side salad like; Olive pasta salad, tossed salad, caesar salad dressing when serving a high-fat entree, I think the acidity of the dressing helps balance out the fat content. or mashed potatoes, white rice, garlic bread.

Yes, you can. Let it cool completely before storing it in freezer bags and freeze it for up to three months.
Remember always to label the bag with the date that you made it, so you don’t keep it frozen beyond the suggested time.
