Ground Beef Stroganoff
This is so good, I just can’t keep it to myself anymore! I make it 2-3 times every month. It’s just so delicious and comforting. I adapted this recipe from a non-Paleo recipe I saw on here. It’s so nourishing and 100% Paleo! You can make it Primal by using sour cream instead of coconut milk cream. Hope you like it!
Ingredients:
2 TB of Butter or Grassfed Organic Ghee
2 TB of extra-virgin olive oil or coconut oil, divided
1 lg Onion, diced
8 ounces of sliced white mushrooms (slice em’ thick)
1 pound of ground beef
2 TB of tomato paste
1.5 ts thyme
1.5 ts rosemary
4 cloves of garlic
1 TB arrowroot powder
1.5 cup beef stock (I usually use my homemade chicken stock since I make a batch every week)
2/3 cup thick coconut cream (this is the cream off the top of a can of coconut milk). I recommend Native Forest for this because it separates really good in the can.
1/2 ts of sea salt
1/2 ts black pepper
cooked Cauliflower Rice, Sliced Zucchini ”noodles”, sweet potato noodle, or Spaghetti Squash
Directions:
In a skillet, melt the butter/or Ghee with 1 TB of olive/or coconut oil. Add the mushrooms and onions, and saute until slightly softened and browned around the edges. Remove to a plate.
Brown ground beef in 1 TB of olive oil until no longer pink. Return onions and mushrooms to pan. Add tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, and garlic. Saute’ for about 3 minutes to allow the flavors to develop. Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle arrowroot powder over meat mixture and stir to combine until arrowroot is completely mixed in. Add beef stock and stir to mix in.
Sauce will begin to thicken as it comes to a simmer.
Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for a couple minutes.
Stir in the thick coconut cream.
Serve over cooked Cauliflower Rice, sliced zucchini noodles, sweet potato noodle, or roasted Spaghetti Squash with some roasted vegetables on the side!
We made it with sweet potato noodles this time which my kids LOVED!










Yummy! Something to try for my very picky daughter. Thanks a lot for sharing.
She will love it! My 3 year old gobbles it down!
We made this tonight…and it tastes a million times better than SAD Stroganoff. It was absolutely delicious and such a comfort food. I will definitely be adding this to our weekly lineup for sure. Cheap, easy, and soothing. Thank you so much!
That’s so good to hear! We love it too! Thank you!
Does this taste coconutty?
Nope, not at all!
Thank You, will try tonight!
This was awesome! I was worried it would be coconutty, but it was not at all! Hubby couldn’t believe ther was no dairy in it! Thank you!
So glad you liked it!!!
Excellent recipe! Great comfort food! Even my fussy 6 year old daughter liked it! Thank you for sharing!
Oh that is a big complement!!! Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
I am thrilled to have found this recipe (and your blog!) although I have a pound of pastured ground turkey to use tonight…My husband loves stroganoff sans peas!
Thank you Melanie! Let me know how you all liked it

Is there anything you’d recommend instead of adding mushrooms? I don’t like them much but I know they give it that ‘earthy’ kinda flavor. Thanks!
hmmm, you could try another vegetable like zucchini!

I can’t get my hands on arrowroot powder easily. Is it just a thickening agent? I’ve got lots of GF flours that I could substitute.
Do you have tapioca powder?
I have tapioca flour so if that’s the same thing as powder then yes I do!
That was very delicious. Thanks for the recipe. I will definitely make it again!
How many servings does this make?
I would say 4 servings.
this was a great recipe, thanks for sharing. Where are you finding your sweet potato noodles? do you order them online? thanks!
I actually find mine for pretty cheap at a nearby Asian market. You can also order them off Amazon
Best stroganoff I have ever made! Loved it. I did use sour cream, but would definitely try the coconut cream option if we ever needed to be dairy free again.
So happy to hear you enjoyed it!
