Ingredients

Scale

Soup Base

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic (divided)
  • 2 ribs celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 carrots, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion, diced
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Vegetables & Protein

  • 2 medium Yukon gold potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 ounces button or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 2 cups leftover prime rib, cut into bite-sized pieces

Others

  • 6 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups dried egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Soften sofrito: In a large stock pot over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the thinly sliced celery, halved and sliced carrots, and diced onion to the pot.
  2. Sauté vegetables: Cook the vegetables for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften. Add 1 tablespoon minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add broth and seasonings: Pour in 6 cups of beef broth. Add the sliced mushrooms, bite-sized potatoes, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  4. Simmer: Bring the broth to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat slightly to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  5. Add noodles: Stir in 2 cups dried egg noodles, mixing well to prevent clumping. Continue cooking for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork. Lower heat to low.
  6. Add beef and vegetables: Add the frozen peas and carrots along with the bite-sized prime rib pieces. Stir gently and cook for 2 minutes until the vegetables are heated through and the prime rib is warmed.
  7. Season and serve: Taste the soup and adjust salt if needed. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve immediately for a warm, satisfying meal.

Notes

  • Use leftover prime rib for best flavor and texture; fresh beef is not recommended for this soup.
  • If you prefer, substitute egg noodles with other pasta types like small shells or ditalini.
  • Adjust the amount of Worcestershire sauce and salt to taste, especially considering the saltiness of your beef broth.
  • The soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
  • For a thicker broth, you can mash a few potatoes into the soup while simmering.
