Rich Beefy Noodles A Comforting Slow Food

Amber Bondar
This slowly simmered beef noodle dish is a savory meaty comfort food your whole family will love. The simple ingredients cook to a thick rich meat sauce that is spooned over egg noodles. Spoon this rich beef sauce over mashed potatoes or rice for a different dinner idea. Make the beef sauce ahead and freeze for later! It's so simple yet flavorful.
