What to serve with Beef Tips

We usually prefer potatoes under our  beef tips to make this a complete meal. You can serve these beef tips with potatoes, noodles or even rice.

To make this into a great family meal add in some vegetables like green beans, roasted cauliflower or carrots to bring in some color and extra flavor.

These have been our favorite family potatoes.
