This recipe was actually not a hard one for me. It's very much by the Ozarks and would be a filling meal. The Farfel recipe has a different name, but consider it much like dumplings. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 lb beef tips, uncooked bite sized
1/2 cup sweet onion, chopped
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon garlic
1 1/4 cups farfel (see recipe below)
8 cups chicken stock
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can beans, your choice white or 1 (15 1/2 ounce) can dark red kidney beans or 1 (15 1/2 ounce) can pinto beans, drained
