Add the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaf, and soup seasonings. Add the beef and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Add the meat and simmer for 1 hour.
Add the peas while you cook the noodles separately (See section below as to why that’s done separately.) Add the mushrooms back to the soup. To serve, add the cooked noodles to serving bowls and ladle the soup on top.(if you don’t anticipate leftovers, you can add the cooked noodles to the pot of soup.)
Cooking the Noodles Separately
Although it’s convenient to cook the noodles right in the soup, there are 3 reasons why I recommend boiling them separately and adding them directly to serving bowls:
Crockpot Chicken Pot Pie Soup
LOADED BAKED POTATO SALAD
