How to make Beef Noodle Soup:

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.

LOVE the flavor of this soup! So delicious! Only thjing I would change is the amount of noodles – I used a 16 oz package, which is less than the 24 oz package called for in the recipe, and it was still a LOT of noodles. 12 oz or even less would have been plenty. I added an extra carrot and did add the sauteed mushrooms, too. Excellent taste and will def make this again.
Made this for dinner tonight using up some leftover shredded chuck roast and the leftover broth. Added remaining required amount of beef broth to make the full amount of liquid. Because my roast was already cooked, I just warmed it up and as soon as the meat, broth and spices were boiling, I proceeded with the rest of the recipe. I also omitted the onion soup mix because I used it in the original roast and the leftover broth already had it incorporated in it. Also, just for fun, added a 1/2 c of sour cream at the end to make it a bit creamier and doubled the carrots and celery. I chose to add the mushrooms but also added 1/2 of a large caramelized onion and use some homemade roasted garlic instead of fresh minced. I was too lazy to make homemade noodles so I used the Reames frozen noodles instead. It was outstanding and my family devoured it! Served it with some homemade sourdough bread and honey butter. We will be making again! Very easy to make and adapt to whatever veggies or leftover cuts of beef you have on hand.
I made this tonight and it was delicious! The can of cream of chicken and packet of onion soup are brilliant!
When i make it again, I’ll make the following adjustments; 40 minutes instead of 45 in the instant pot, double the carrots & add a few veggies (peas, green beans & maybe some corn) along with pasta.
As others mentioned, half the pasta if using dried/store bought.
Absolutely delicious! I also cut back on amount of noodles to 10-12 ounces instead of 24 ounces. I used 3 pounds of leftover standing rib roast, which made it even more delicious. Thank you for this wonderful recipe.
Amazing! Looking forward to making it again!
The flavor of this soup is super good, but the ratio of ingredients were a little off for my taste. I used about 10 ounces of noodles, and it was nicely noodle-y. Any more, it would have been a casserole. The next time I make it, I’ll do twice the carrots and half the celery. The sautéed mushrooms are a must! Very tasty and creamy.
Yeah, I think the 24oz must be for fresh noodles as opposed to dried. I used about 12oz of dried noodles and it seemed about right.
This was so delicious!! I love all your recipes! Thank you!
