Crockpot Beef Stroganoff

This is a delicous recipe that I got from a co-worker. It is great to throw everything in the crockpot early in the day and have a hearty meal in the evening. It's also a good recipe to use game meat in because it is very flavorful and can help cover up some of the gamey taste.

1-2 lbs. cubed beef stew meat (I usually use elk)
1-2 cans cream of mushroom soup (1 per lb. of meat)
1/2 - 1 packet onion soup mix (depending on how flavorful you like it)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup water
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
4 oz. cream cheese
4-6 oz. fresh mushrooms
dollop of sour cream
salt, pepper, and garlic to taste

Combine meat, soups, onion, water and Worcestershire sauce in a crockpot.

Optional: sprinkle meat with salt and pepper and about 1/2 tsp. crushed garlic (I don't do this because the onion soup mix has plenty of flavor)

Cook on low for about 8 hours or on high for about 5 hours.

About 30 min before serving: Saute mushrooms in oil and add them (I usually just put them in without sauteeing - saves time and dishes). Stir in cream cheese and a dollop of sour cream.

Serve over whole wheat egg noodles. Enjoy!!!
