Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds beef stew meat, seasoned with salt & pepper
  • 4 cups low-sodium broth (beef or bone)
  • 3 cups of water
  • 6 ounces uncooked noodles (I used wide egg noodles)
  • 2 medium-size carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1/2 cup onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (or more)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoons pepper
  • 1 tablespoon oil (for Instant Pot)

Instructions

Slow Cooker

  1. Add all ingredients EXCEPT for the noodles into the slow cooker. Stir gently.
  2. Cook HIGH 3-4 or LOW 6-8.
  3. Add preferred noodles and cook on HIGH an additional 15-20 minutes or until noodles are soft.

Instant Pot

  1. Turn on the Instant Pot and select sauté. Once hot add oil to the pot & beef. Cook until beef is browned, approximately 2-3 minutes. Remove beef and set aside.
  2. Add celery, carrots, and onion & cook for a 5-7 minutes or until vegetables are soft. Add garlic and cook an additional minute. Turn off the pressure cooker.
  3. Add the broth and water. If needed, use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pressure cooker to remove any bits that stuck to it. Make sure you scrape it well to avoid burning during cooking.
  4. Stir beef back into the pot along with all the salt, pepper, and thyme or rosemary.
  5. Close lid and seal valve. Set high pressure and cook for 25 minutes.
  6. When cooking time is complete, quick release the pressure.
  7. Open lid & stir in uncooked pasta. You can either turn off pressure cooker, close the lid, and let it sit for  5-10 minutes or you can turn the pressure cooker to warm (or low saute) and let it cook with the lid off.
