This easy beef and noodles recipe is a quick and easy family dinner recipe you can make in just a few minutes with leftover pot roast or other leftover cooked beef. Families and kids love this recipe and it’s so super simple to make!
I like to plan ahead and start by making our easy slow-cooked pot roast recipe and then use the leftover roast to make 3 or 4 more meals like this easy beef and noodles recipe! This is an easy way to plan a bunch of meals for a week where you can easily reduce the amount of work you have to do to prepare meals for the family.
If I don’t feel like eating beef for a lot of meals, I will often make the roast and freeze the leftovers in smaller portions in ziploc bags so I have it on hand to quickly dump into a fast and easy recipe like this beef and noodles.
If you don’t have leftover pot roast, you can use other kinds of leftover cooked beef, too. If you have any beef you need to use like round steak or stew meat, you can cook it, chop it into small pieces and use it for this recipe. You can even use leftover cooked ground beef.
I usually make this recipe with just the beef and noodles because it is easiest and even picky eaters will love it, but to make it a little more fancy, you can add 1 can or package of sliced mushrooms with the meat and garnish with parsley. This is perfect for adults and less picky kids.
