* This dish can be easily made with gluten free noodles.
Beef and noodles was one of the first dishes I truly learned to make in college. It wasn't out of a box. I knew this was one meal I'd miss when I learned to live gluten free. Thankfully, gluten free noodles are now easy to find, and I can now have an old favorite a few times a year. This is an easy dish to make and can be made with left over steak. Mushroom soup can be used as a gravy on this dish, along with sides of peas and carrots. The steaks can be grilled, baked, or fried.
