Beef Tips with Noodles

Tonight's menu is Beef tips with noodles, canteloupe, dinner rolls, strawberry or blueberry shortcake.

Here's how to make the beef tips:

First you brown the meat ( I am using stew meat).

Remove the meat and saute' onions, bell pepper and celery for a few minutes in about 1 tablespoon of butter.

Add about 1 tablespoon of flour after they are starting to get tender.
Then add the meat back along with a good amount of water.

Simmer until tender. Usually a couple of hours. Add more water as needed.

I will cook the noodles right in the broth when we are about ready to eat. 

Here is finished plate other than the shortcakes which we ate later
