How to make Beef Noodle Soup:

Sear Meat: Trim any large fat pieces from the roast and cut into 1 inch cubes. Add oil to a large pot over high heat. Season beef on all sides with salt and pepper. Once oil is hot, add beef to the pot and sear on all sides.

Make Soup: Stir in beef broth, onion soup mix, rosemary, thyme, and garlic cloves. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 1 hour.

Add Vegetables: Stir in mushroom soup, celery and carrots and cook for another 20 minutes.

Add Noodles: Add egg noodles and cook for 5-10, minutes, until tender.

Serve: I love to pair this soup with the Best Homemade Rolls or a slice of Artisan Bread!

Storage and Freezing Instructions:

To Store: Leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat on the stove or in the microwave.

To Freeze: Make the soup up until adding the noodles. Freeze without the noodles for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator then reheat on the stovetop and add uncooked noodles.
