I made this for dinner the other night and I didn't feel it had as much flavor as it should have. Maybe I added too much sour cream. I just added 3/4 of a container of a 15 oz. container figuring it would be equal to 11/2 cups. Next time I will measure more accurately to see if it comes out any different. It was still OK.

I wish I would have read the other reviews before I made this. It has way to much sour cream and was very bland. I added a lot of pepper, salt, garlic and onion powder and still didn't have much flavor.

Just to be different I made this with hot Italian sausage and one small finely-chopped onion. I kept to the rest of the recipe and it was a big hit for a middle of the week meal with the kids. Make sure you side it with a simple green salad!

Hamburger isn't very flavorful, so to kick it up a notch try adding a can of beef consomm, a tablespoon of red wine vinegar and a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce before you stir in your cream of mushroom soup.

I'll definately make this dish very soon , since it sounds easy quick to make on a very busy day. A traditiinal Stroganoff is a bit more involved, and takes somewhat longer. I'll definately 'lighten it up' a bit by using the 'healthier' version of Campbell's soup, 'lite' Sour Cream, and 'Whole Wheat' Egg Noodles (my family I love the taste, but some folks don't). I usually use fresh garlic in my dishes, but I'm sure that garlic powder will work just as well in this application. I'll serve it 'Family Style', so that everyone can help themselves to however much (or how little) they care to eat. I'll also chop up a small bowl of fresh parsley, so that everyone can sprinkle some on top of their dish. I'm sure my family will enjoy this delicious sounding looking meal, every bit as I'm looking forward to preparing it. The ingredients are already on my next week's grocery list.

Use only a cup of sour cream and a can of cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom, it gives it more flavor.

Big hit with the family. I must say though, a bit bland as written. I added some salt and a lot more black pepper. Next time I might try reducing the sour cream a bit, it's an awful lot. All in all though, very good.

I am a heart patient on low sodium diet. If you will use the Reduced Sodium or Low Sodium soup I believe you will be all right. Just watch your portions when you eat. You will also see a lot of Heart Healthy soups on the market these days with reduced sodium content.

I believe you can substitue a white sauce for the soup. You can flavor it with bouillion or broth. Add fresh or canned mushrooms.

i have made similar versions of this recipe for over 20 years.always good.i am not fond of sour cream or mushrooms but my family love it.so i take my portion out before adding the sour cream.the mushrooms are not a problem nor the soup as mushrooms cooked in good food make it so much better.i experiment with it a lot.a good meal can make quickly and a winner for my family.i have also put a bit of cooking sherry in it and it gives it a fuller body or richer taste.to me.and i am not a sherry drinker.but a good recipe. experiment with it a bit.its pretty hard to mess up as long as u add or substitute small amounts until you find your niche.just my thoughts on this.i serve it with some hot garlic loaf.my family can only say.oh mom ..yumm.

When I've made this and had no sour cream I've used cream cheese. If you have neither use a soup can of milk. This will make it runnier so don't cook the noodles all the way, add them to the hamburger mixture so they will absorb the extra liquid.

A canned mushroom gravy would work. I don't eat meat, so I'd use a veggie product for the beef part, but carnivores could probably use canned beef gravy. The sour cream would still give it the stroganoff touch.

You could stir in a couple tablespoons of flour after the meat has cooked...just make sure there is some fat in the skillet....then add a can of beef broth, stir until the sauce thickens and then add the sour cream...

This is right out of the Betty Crocker 1970 cookbook, without all of the flavor Betty put into it. Yes, it does need worcestershire sauce, and I always put in just a tablespoon of ketchup too, just to add a little richness. It's so much better with a fresh garlic clove. This has been a favorite since about, oh, 1970!
