If you’re in the middle of writing your midweek meal plan, you don’t want to skip Meatball Stroganoff day. A stroganoff-style warmer with a juicy meatball twist, our indulgent-tasting sauce is so satisfyingly silky you’d never guess it’s lower in calories.

To make sure every forkful is fuss-free and slimming friendly, we’ve used a clever combination of lower calorie ingredients, including low-fat cream cheese. While traditional versions of stroganoff are typically made with crème fraîche or sour cream, we’ve recreated the same flavours in a way that’s good for you and good for your budget.

Fans of our Beef Stroganoff will already know that, aside from being bathed in a luxurious stroganoff-style sauce, it’s a batch-cooker’s dream. This silky meatball dish is no different; thanks to having the same moreish flavours at its base, it’ll pair gorgeously well with a side of steamed veggies, mashed potatoes, potato wedges, fluffy rice or pasta!

Meatball Stroganoff can be enjoyed on gluten-free diets, as long as you substitute the beef stock cube for a suitable alternative. 

You can also prepare this dish for dairy-free diets by using a dairy-free cream cheese.

As always, take extra care when cooking for people with allergies and be sure to use different utensils, cookware and preparation areas.

Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips.
We hope you find them useful.

So creamy & tasty.

We did have to put a small amount of cornflour in to thicken the sauce to our liking.

OMG this is so good.

You could make the sauce for other things too.

Smells Amazing and tastes delicious

An easy to make recipe however I used less water to make the sauce thicker and finished with dried flat leaf parsley as I prefer the taste. I also made buttery carrot and swede mash to go with it and it’s so filling

Loved it ! A new family favourite

I used lightest laughing cow triangles which took a while to stir in. The sauce went cold so I had to put it back on a gentle heat to warm through.

Added extra mustard

Smells lush, added extra mustard and a good amount of pepper
