There is something so satisfying to me about stroganoff dishes. Mushrooms, meat, and noodles in a creamy sauce–what’s not to love? And all in one pot for easy cleanup.

I always have a list of one-pot meals that I can throw together on those days when I don’t feel like cooking.

Takeout seems like the best option after a long day, but a dish like this takes less time than it does to order and wait for that “fast food.” And you feel much better about your decision the next day!

My Beef Stroganoff Bubble-Up is a favorite, but I wanted to go with something more like the classic dish. This is honestly so easy to make and packed full of nutritious ingredients.

Just look at all of the creamy goodness! It totally brings me back to my college years, eating Hamburger Helper to save money.

When Jeff and I first started dating, we were so broke that we made Hamburger Helper using chopped up hotdogs because we couldn’t afford ground meat. I DO NOT advise doing that. Lol.

But I do like a budget-friendly and easy meal, which is why I can appreciate products like Hamburger Helper.

Honestly, though, this One-Pot Turkey Stroganoff is still inexpensive, easy, and–best of all–much healthier for you than the boxed stuff. You really can’t beat a one-pot meal like this one.

WHAT DO I NEED TO MAKE ONE-POT TURKEY STROGANOFF?

Most of the ingredients are pantry staples. Make sure you have the following ingredients on hand to throw this together, even if you didn’t plan to:

PANTRY

  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 1 box of fat-free chicken stock
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Flour
  • 1 Onion
  • Garlic cloves
  • Paprika, dried thyme, kosher salt, ground black pepper

REFRIGERATOR

  • Nonfat, plain Green yogurt
  • Light cream cheese

These are all ingredients that I always have on hand, so all I need to pick up at the store is 99% Fate free ground turkey and 10 ounces of mushrooms.

I tend to buy ground turkey on sale and freeze it, so chances are I’ll even have the turkey already. Just pick up some mushrooms and I’m good to go!

Another great plus–the leftovers are even better than the first time you make it! So this is a great lunch-prep recipe as well.
