CROCK POT BEEF NOODLE SOUP

Beef Noodle Soup

The husband has been under the weather, so instead of making him chicken noodle soup, I decided to make him this instead. Feel free to use homemade chicken stock if you have some lying around, low sodium canned chicken broth, or if you want a more beef flavor, low sodium beef stock.
