Beef Noodle Recipes
by Christine Steendahl
Description: Beef noodle dishes are easy to make and make great family meals.
One of the most flexible and yummy meals you can serve your
loved ones on a weekly basis is Beef Noodle Dishes. Beef noodles are
absolutely tasty, simple to prepare and can be cooked in many to keep every
member of your family satisfied at dinner time. Here are some ideas.
Beef noodle dishes usually consist of pasta noodles and a beef sauce.
Beef sauces can come in a multitude of styles. Some people make beef
sauce using soups. A favorite of mine is to use canned Mushroom soup or if
you prefer canned French onion soup mix. Feel free to also use dry
beef soup mixes. While I do think the canned mixes generally deliver a
better recipe, the difference in taste is generally not that noticeable.
For noodles, I often use wide and flat pasta noodles. However,
everybody has a noodle preference. Some prefer long thin noodles, others like
them long and thick and then you have family members that like wide
noodles or pasta shapes. In general they all taste the same, with a little
variety due to texture. However, it is often a good idea to switch up
the style of the noodles around to keep the entire recipe fresh.
Adding beef to your beef noodle recipe is favored, but actually not
necessary. For those that prefer chunky beef noodle recipes use hamburger
meat. Others may prefer Swedish meatball type beef in their recipes, and,
thirdly, feel free to use steak for yummy casseroles and beef noodle
stir fry’s.

noodles. This recipe makes about 6 servings.
French Onion Beef Noodle

Cook in a crock pot for about 8 to 10 hours on a low temperature. Boil
noodles and place cooked contents over your noodles. This recipe makes

Chinese Beef Noodle Stir Fry
- 1.5 pounds of sliced steak (skirt steak tastes great, sometimes listed
as diaphragm)
- 1 red pepper
- 1 green pepper
- 1 can of Chinese vegetables
- 16 ounces of noodles – Chinese style
- Soy sauce, season to taste
- Olive oil
Boil the noodles separately. In a large frying pan or wok, add some oil
and start cooking the steak first. Once mostly cooked, add veggies,
peppers and soy sauce to taste. This recipe yields about 6 servings.
Besides soy sauce, you can try some of the numerous oriental sauces
available, such as Hoisin sauce, plum sauce, Thai spicy sauce, etc.
