- 1 packet brown gravy mix
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 cup water
Noodles & Garnish
- 8 oz egg noodles
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
- Prepare the Beef Tips: In a slow cooker, combine the stew meat, Lipton onion soup mix, brown gravy mix, beef broth, and water. Stir everything together well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
