Its crock pot season.....

I <3 my crock pot. I just purchased a new one yesterday. But what better way to come home on a cold fall day then to a pot of already cooked warm food? You can put virtually anything in there and it is cooked to perfection and stays warm until you are ready to eat it!

Today I made beef tips and onion over egg noodles. Here's how easy it was.....


Ingredients:

Beef chunks (any cut you want but I usually buy whatever is looking good in the stew meat section)
1 medium onion, cut into chunks
1 package Lipton Beefy Onion soup
Beef Broth
No Yolks egg noodles (extra wide)

Put the first 4 ingredients in the pot. You want just enough broth to cover beef and onion. Stir and cook for 8-10 hours on low. Boil egg noodles and serve in a bowl with beef over the top.

Optional: If you like a thicker sauce, you can remove the beef and onions from the crockpot and pour juice/sauce into a pan. Whisk in some corn starch or flour to pan. Let thicken for about 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, on medium heat. Return beef and onion to sauce and serve over noodles!
