Leftover Roast Beef Soup (Leftover Steak Too!)

Sue Lau's Note:

This is great for my family because there aren't very many of us and sometimes a roast is just too much. Soup is always a popular option here, and is a great way to warm up on a cold day. You could also use leftover steak in this, sliced thin.

Sorry, but we did like this. I tried to "fix" it, but just couldn't. I followed the recipe as written until I tried to fix it. I ended up dumping it and ordering pizza. Sorry, I really wanted to like it.

Not good. Easy enough to make and quick too but pretty much tasteless. If you're a fiddler, you might find a way to add some flavor but I'm not so this recipe is no good to me. Sorry, just didn't go over well tonight at all.

This is very easy to make and tastes great. I alternate between using egg noodles and using potatoes. My husband will cook up a roast just so we can have this with the leftovers. Note: Do not use steak that was grilled on a charcoal grill (that was gross)!
