    Growing up Campbell's Noodles and Ground Beef Soup was my absolute favorite. I didn't know it by that name, though, my grandmother always called it "Three Kinds of Noodle Soup" because it had three different shapes of noodles. I don't remember what kind of noodles it had exactly, just that they were thin, medium, and thicker noodles, so that's what I used. You can use any kind of noodles you want in this recipe, though I do recommend home style noodles.

    Campbell's Noodles and Ground Beef Soup was discontinued sometime in the late 90's or early 2000's from what I can remember. I found one article that says it was 2005, but I don't remember having eaten it for years before that. It's a pretty simple soup to make, and great for both kids and grown-ups!

    My version makes a lot of soup, but it freezes well so you can easily have it for dinner twice in one month. You can also use the new recipe card feature below to adjust the serving size and amount of ingredients easily.  Normally I would cook the noodles for soup separately to prevent them from becoming mushy, but in this soup I wanted the noodles soft, just like my childhood favorite.

      Rather flavorless. I added some "boosters": about a tablespoon EACH of onion and garlic powder, about 2 tablespoons each "better than bouillon" vegetable stock base and Worcestershire sauce. Much better.

      I made this recipe tonight, as I too miss Campbells Noodle and ground beef soup. I added some onions and garlic. Taste so much like I remember. I will definitely be making this again! Thanks for posting this recipe!

      Thanks for the recipe! I use beef boullion - a couple cubes with the broth (use only Campbellls)! And fine, medium and large noodles. I also add celery and parsley.
