Chunks of tender beef tossed with thick egg noodles in a beef sauce. This, my friends, is PURE comfort food.
This is one of those recipes that I love to share. One from my childhood.
To me this just screams COMFORT FOOD!
I loved when my Mom made beef & noodles when I was a kid, and my kids LOVE it now.
It’s one of those meals they can smell the moment they walk in the door and they immediately shout
“When’s Dinner??!!”
Although I typically make this on the stove, you can do all of the prep with your crock pot if you desire. I have done it both ways.
Either way — you have to try it! My hubby loves to top it with some sour cream — gives it more of a stroganoff taste!

Beef & Noodles
Comfort food at it's best. Tender chunks of beef, celery and egg noodles.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef stew meat
- 2 - 14 ounce cans beef stock
- 2 1/2 cups celery, diced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup corn starch dissolved in 1/4 water
- 2 - 12 ounce packages of Reames Frozen Home style Egg Noodles
Instructions
To a pan over medium heat add beef, beef stock, celery and onion. Generously salt and pepper.
Cover and simmer for about an hour, until meat and veggie are tender. Stirring occasionally.
While meat cooks, prepare your egg noodles per the package instructions.
When meat is tender, add corn starch/water mixture and stir, sauce will thicken.
Drain and add the noodles, combine with meat mixture.
I love mine just like it is, but my hubby tops it with sour cream!
Notes
**Note If you are wanting to make this in your crock pot, simply cook the meat, broth, onions celery on low all day. Finish it up with your noodles when you're ready to eat. Thicken as necessary.

I would have to give this a 5 Star rating! So easy & my husband
just had a fit over them. Most any recipe you’d call “easy,” my
hubby would usually NOT like. Thanks for making my life a
little easier!
Michaela Kenkel says
Happy to simplify a little for you and glad your hubby liked them! That’s what you call a win-win situation! 😉
sheri says
Do you have to use corn starch?
Michaela Kenkel says
The cornstarch works as a thickening agent. If you don’t use it, your sauce will just be a little more liquidy. Up to you! 🙂

Super easy & super good! I’ve never had beef & noodles I cared for,
but was pleasantly surprised! Thanks for making our lives easier!
Michaela Kenkel says
So happy you liked it! Loved this since I was a kid!
sharyn hood says
I tried this recipe a few weeks ago – my husband & I BOTH loved this!
Bought the lean stew meat, omitted the celery; so easy & a-w-e-s-o-m-e!!!
The only beef & noodles I’d had, in the past, were greasy – so I never
fixed them. Now, these are a regular in this house.
Thanks,
sharyn

That’s makes me so happy! We had it for dinner last night- I always double the celery! Ha! I’m happy that you have made it your own. Hope you enjoy many recipes here to come!
