Thank you - Thank you - Thank you!!!!! I have been married for eight years (been with him for 17!!!) and all i hear about is how Mrs W (his best friends mom) made beef stroganoff but it had an orange color to it. I think this might be very close to hers with the tomatoe paste. I think I will surpise him with it Sunday but I have a question - you said you made it with hamburger - how much did you use?
