* This dish can be easily made with gluten free noodles.
Another version of a classic ground beef recipe. Perfect for eating soon after dental work is done, or with a mouth infection. Easy to swallow when too tired to chew. This is also a good travel dish, whether you take in insulated soup containers or make it in a hotel kitchen. It's also one I like for picnics on the patio. This dish can be served on rice instead of noodles. Vegetable mixtures can be added for color, taste, and texture. Most common would be peas, carrots, and squash. Mushroom soup sauce as a topping adds flavor and texture.
