I cut this in half for me and my husband to use up the extra 1/2 can of consomme I had. Because I omitted the mushrooms, I added in some chopped green pepper as an extra veggie. I too did it all on the stove and didn't use the slow cooker. I made the beef as written, drained it and put it on a plate. Added the butter, cooked the onion and green pepper until they were starting to get tender, then added in the garlic. I put the beef back in, added in the whisked sauce, covered it and put it on low while my noodles cooked. After they were done, I added in the sour cream and cooked until heated through.I found it to be quite yummy and reminded me a bit of Swedish meatballs. I thought the "sauce" was just a tad too thick, so next time I'll add in even more consomme or add in some beef broth. Overall a good recipe and pretty easy too!

This recipe was a hit with my family! I'm allergic to mushrooms, but I just left those out and it was still amazing.

Great recipe! As other reviewers commented, I cooked mine on the stovetop, too. I didn't have beef consomm?, so used a can of French onion soup that I had on hand. The mixture got really thick, so I added about a half cup of water to thin it out. Great way to use up some browned ground beef and mushrooms I had on hand Quick and easy, too!

Actually, this is a good recipe. I gave it four stars because the slow cooker is not necessary. Most of the ingredients are pre-cooked, so just leave everything in the pan and finish it there. Use less consomme at first until you see how thick it is, then add more as necessary. Oh--if you don't want to open a can of tomato paste, use catsup instead.

My family enjoyed this take on Stroganoff. I did half the recipe and cooked it on the stove top to save time, but no other changes were made, the ingredients all stayed the same. Using half the consumme was fine for me, because I just used the other half for rice pilaf the next night for dinner.
