Ingredients
  

Beef and Base Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef Use lean ground beef for less greasiness.
  • 8 oz egg noodles Substitute gluten-free pasta if desired.
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Vegetables and Garnish
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn, etc.)

Method
 

Cooking the Beef
  1. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Sautéing the Vegetables
  1. Once the beef is cooked, add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Combining Ingredients
  1. Pour in the beef broth, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  2. Stir in the egg noodles, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Allow the mixture to return to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
  3. Add the frozen mixed vegetables and stir to combine, covering the pan with a lid. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
Final Seasoning and Serving
  1. Once cooked, taste and season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper as needed.
  2. Remove the pan from heat and sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving.
