This soup was surprisingly good. I think it's because I rarely eat soup like this. Maybe if I ate soup like this more often it wouldn't have been as exciting for me. I definitely recommend it. It's kind of like a beef stroganoff in a soup form.
I think the only thing that I changed in this recipe was to add extra noodles. I added 3 cups of uncooked noodles instead of the 2 cups of uncooked noodles the recipe called for. We liked it like this, but if you'd rather have more broth, 2 cups might be better for you. Oh, also, my cheap beef broth substitution of bullion cubes.
Also, if you prefer, drain off the fat after cooking the meat. I was afraid of losing flavor, so I didn't, but it would probably look a little better.
