Slow Cooker Beef Tips with Mushrooms and Egg Noodles | browneyedbaker.com

Back in January when I had Joseph, my mom took two weeks off of work to be available to help and do whatever we needed in those first bleary-eyed days when we got home from the hospital. It was a huge help, especially since I ended up having a c-section and wasn’t allowed to do stairs and was too sore to do a lot of typical around-the-house stuff… AND she cooked us some fantastic food.

When I was younger, one of my favorite meals that my mom made was beef tips with mushrooms and noodles, so that was one of the things that she made a week or so after Joseph was born. It totally hit the spot and was perfect comfort food. We had my grandparents over for lunch yesterday and when I was trying to think about what to make, I remembered that meal from January. Beef tips, it was!

I asked my mom for the recipe that she used, and she said she based hers off of this Allrecipes.com one, but added wine, didn’t use a gravy packet and made it in the slow cooker. I took her version one step further and eliminated all of the stovetop prep time, because, well, I didn’t think it was necessary and if I can remove unnecessary prep time, I will absolutely do it. I also added the flour-based roux and kicked up the heat in the last hour to thicken up the sauce a bit.

My modified version turned out fantastic and it got the grandparents’ seal of approval. I made it a meal with egg noodles, a salad and rolls. Easy, simple and almost completely hands-off – my kind of meal nowadays!
