Ingredients

Instructions

A day before you make the recipe, boil the noodles and store them in the refrigerator overnight to make them starch-resistant.

You can use leftover beef stew for this planned leftover recipe, but if you do not have leftover stew, you can make it from scratch. Beef stew is easy to make. I like to use a chuck roast thttingFirst, brown the stew meat in olive oil on all sides. Then, remove and set aside.

In the same pan, saute the celery and onion. Add a little more olive oil if needed.

Add the cauliflower to the pan and cook until it is crisp-tender.

Add the beef back into the pan and stir.

Add the salt, onion powder, Swerve, paprika, pepper and thyme. Sprinkle Carbquick over the top of the stew mixture.

Stir in the beef broth and stir until slightly thickened. Taste to adjust salt and pepper.

Now, if you have leftover beef stew, this is the point where you can jump in. Add 1 can of sliced mushrooms to your beef stew, the packet of onion soup mix and the can of tomatoes with onions and garlic. Stir well.

Boil a pot of water. Add the refrigerated noodles to the water for 1 minute. Drain. Pour into a large pot or bowl.

Pour the hot beef stew over the noodles and toss well. Dinner is served!
