4 cups beef broth

Instructions

1. Chop carrot, onion and celery into small pieces.

5. Add in the beef broth and stir the mixture together.

6. Add in crushed tomatoes and stir the sauce together.

7. Once the sauce mixture has come up to a boil, add in the uncooked pasta and turn heat down to a low simmer (just under medium heat). I like to put a lid on the pot. If it gets to be too bubbly, simply lower heat a little more.

8. Stir occasionally, every few minutes.
9. Let simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the noodles are cooked through.
