Substitutions and Additions

- Cream Soup - To make the sauce creamier, add in a can of cream of mushroom soup.
- Noodles - We used egg noodles, but you can use other types of noodles.
- Vegetables - Add in vegetables such as broccoli or carrots to make it a complete meal.
- Ground Beef - You can also use ground beef instead of roast for the meat.
- Sauce - Worcestershire Sauce can be added in. It is great combined with the other ingredients.
- Onion Soup Mix - Any easy substitute for chopped onion is add a packet of onion soup mix or make Homemade Onion Soup Mix.
- Bouillon Cubes - For even more flavor, you can add in 2 beef bouillon cubes when adding in the broth.
