Beef Stroganoff with Zucchini Noodles

Gluten FreeHigh ProteinStovetop

5 min · 1 serving · 330 cal

This beef stroganoff with zucchini noodles is a creamy, savory, comfort-food classic made lighter and low-carb. Tender beef strips in a rich mushroom cream sauce served over spiralized zucchini instead of egg noodles — all the indulgence, none of the heaviness.
Pro Tip
Don't cook the zucchini noodles in the sauce — they release water and make everything watery. Saute them separately in a hot pan for just 1-2 minutes, then plate and spoon the stroganoff on top.
