Using a soup pot, melt the butter over medium heat.

Add the beef and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the meat has browned on all sides. Add the onion and celery and cook another 3 minutes.

Pour in the beef broth.

Add the parsley, ground black pepper, and carrots.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes. Do a taste test and adjust seasonings to suit your taste.

Add the noodles, turn heat up and bring the soup to a boil.

Boil for one minute, then turn back down to simmer for 10 minutes. Shut off and cover.

Let sit for about 15 minutes or until the noodles have cooked through.
