BEEF STROGANOFF RECIPEI’m so jazzed about our Beef Stroganoff Recipe! I grew up eating beef stroganoff at a close friends house once a month, every month for practically a decade! It was one of her mom’s specialties and man was it delicious…

I’m here to tell you how to make the best filet mignon recipe for Valentine’s Day!
Seriously, this is the best. While I only make filet on super special occasions, we adore it and this recipe is absolutely divine.
The steak is so tender and juicy and flavorful. The blue cheese butter is wonderful enough to want to eat with a spoon. The combo is classic, restaurant-worthy and makes dinner feel extra fancy. I’d say we all need that right now!
If you follow me on instagram, you saw me make this amazing filet on Christmas Eve. We wanted to keep things low key but also really wanted filet, because we usually have something like my espresso crusted beef tenderloin.
However, I’ve been cooking my filet mignon steaks like this for years – ever since I first learned how. This is by far the best foolproof recipe I’ve found and it works like a charm every single time if you want to make steaks. It’s pretty quick and easy too!
The only thing I occasionally do differently is baste with butter from the pan until cooked. I mean, basting with butter is the most delicious thing you can do, but it also requires standing over the hot pan for a few minutes and if you have little kids around, I can assure you this is easier! And just as delish.
Oh! And! The only thing that makes this steak better is topping it with…
Oh my yes please.
Obviously, this is a dream. Remember years and years ago when I made these blue cheese biscuits with red wine butter? Well I almost made pinot noir butter here again but changed it at the last minute. Blue cheese on filet is just such a classic flavor combo. One that is so, so good.
The steak is rich and decadent, the blue cheese butter is a bit tangy and creamy – it complements so well. Can’t beat the classic!
Perhaps my favorite part of searing a filet is having some filet leftovers. We love using leftover filet to make slider sandwiches (hot or cold!) or even use on my steakhouse pizza. Pretty sure that leftover filet may rank up there as Eddie’s favorite leftover of ALL time.
One the side of this filet, I did a quick roast of my cacio e pepe brussels. This recipe is SO good. Such an easy way to prepare brussels sprouts and makes for a wonderful side dish that everyone loves. When we have this for dinner, I often keep it to a side like the brussels or my parmesan roasted broccoli. The steak is already so filling and decadent, that having a roasted vegetable side dish is the way to go.
Isn’t is just the perfect special occasion meal?!
Seriously the perfect bite.

Okay, we’re finishing off comfort food week with these for the big game on Sunday. Cannot even express how super bowl worthy these are. I reeeeally hope you try them because they are such a treat.
And it’s official.
I am in LOVE with this recipe.
The concept isn’t new, but these sliders are SUCH a fun way to serve burgers to your family, especially if you don’t want to light up the grill. My smash burgers are my favorites to make indoors, but these are taking a very close second.
The ingredients are ridiculously simple too. Buns, beef, cheese, condiments of your choice.
And my house sauce, hello!
They take 10 minutes to throw together, then another 10 or 15 to bake until melty.
SERIOUSLY. It does not get easier.
And you can prep all the ingredients ahead of time if you’d like! These are so easily customizable.
If you’ve been around here for awhile, you might remember yearssss ago when I made these slow cooker cheeseburgers. They are weirdly good, even if they technically take longer than a real burger. Just a nice switch.
I took some inspiration from that (and my cheeseburger pizza!) to mix condiments INTO the actual ground beef, which goes such a long way. I know it seems a little weird, especially if you don’t like mustard, but I promise you can’t taste it. It almost makes the filling taste like a shake shack-ish burger and is totally restaurant worthy. It’s delightful!
So this is how simple it it:
Brown the ground beef.
Layer the buns, cheese, beef, house sauce. Maybe more cheese if you’re into it. (Always into it!)
Bake until warm.
Serve with all the burger toppings that you love.
It’s embarrassingly easy. Eddie, who is basically a burger connoisseur, adores them. Max and Emilia LOVE that they are tiny sliders that their little hands can grab. I find them so much easier to eat too!
Hoping that sells you if the cheesy bites do not! They are DELISH.
These.are.a.dream.
