5+ stars for this soup! A simple soup to put together and the flavor is over the top! I used a 2 pound package of stew meat, a yellow pepper, beef broth instead of the water and bouillon, and added some celery that I needed to use before it wilted. The meat for very tender and flavorful, a nice rich broth, and the definitely use the fine egg noodles. Served with mikekey's Grape-Nuts Bread (Abm) #387787 and cant wait to have lunch tomorrow! Made and reviewed for Pick A Chef Spring 2010.

This was pretty good. I didn't have any bouillon, so I substituted with grill seasoning and salt. I would make it again.

I made this for a small family get-together, and it was a huge hit.
