Description

A hearty and delicious dish combining ground beef, noodles, and a blend of seasonings that is sure to please.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 large shallot or small onion (chopped)
  • 3 cloves garlic (pressed or minced)
  • 8 shakes gluten free worcestershire sauce (~1/2 Tablespoon)
  • 1 teaspoon + extra dash homemade seasoned salt
  • pepper
  • 11/2 cups chicken or beef broth
  • 15 oz can tomato sauce
  • 15 oz can petite diced tomatoes
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup gluten free elbow noodles (uncooked)

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet with high sides or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add beef, shallot or onion, and garlic then break beef up as it cooks. Season with worcestershire sauce, a dash of homemade seasoned salt, and pepper, then brown. Drain if necessary then return beef mixture to the skillet.
  2. Add remaining teaspoon seasoned salt, broth, tomato products, Italian seasoning, and bay leaf then turn heat up to bring liquid to a simmer. Turn heat down to medium/medium-low then simmer gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add elbow noodles then continue to simmer, stirring often, until noodles are tender, 12-14 minutes, turning the heat down slightly near the end to maintain a very gentle simmer. Remove bay leaf then taste and add additional seasoned salt and/or pepper if desired. Serve.

Notes

  • Check the seasoning before serving, as different brands of broth and tomato products can vary in salt content.
  • This dish is great as leftovers and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
