Healthy Turkey Stroganoff

Our family loves beef stroganoff, but it is not necessarily one of the healthiest meals. This is a twist on beef stroganoff made with ground turkey meat and low fat plain yogurt or lite sour cream, which cuts the fat significantly. Add a big salad or some steamed veggies and you have a great meal!

 Healthy Turkey Stroganoff

1¼ pounds ground turkey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large shallot, chopped
1 pound cremini mushrooms (or button mushrooms, whatever you can find)
1/4 cup white wine
1 tablespoon beef base (its like condensed beef stock. I use Better than Bouillon Beef Base )
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt or light sour cream
salt and pepper to taste

Saute shallot in 1 tablespoon olive oil in non-stick skillet for 3-4 minutes until soft. Add ground turkey and cook until browned. Drain fat from pan and remove turkey meat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to pan and saute mushrooms until soft, around 5 minutes. Add wine to mushrooms when pan looks a little dry. Put turkey meat back into pan with mushrooms, and add beef base and Worcestershire sauce, stir until well mixed. Add yogurt or light sour cream and mix until heated, but do not boil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve over egg noodles (or other shaped pasta) or rice. Enjoy!
