Notes

To make this Crockpot Beef and Noodles recipe gluten free, replace regular egg noodles with certified gluten-free egg noodles or gluten-free pasta.
Use gluten-free cream of mushroom soup, as many canned cream soups contain wheat-based thickeners.
Choose a certified gluten-free onion soup mix, or use a homemade gluten-free onion seasoning blend.
Confirm that the beef broth, minced garlic, seasonings, and all packaged ingredients are labeled gluten free.
Use clean utensils, measuring cups, cutting boards, bowls, and slow cooker tools to prevent gluten cross-contact.
Cook the gluten-free noodles separately and add them near the end, as gluten-free pasta can become soft more quickly than regular egg noodles.
