Since my husband gave me his cold, soup seemed in order for dinner tonight. I think this might be the best beef and barley soup I've ever had. So yummy and super easy to make. Not a lot of extra seasonings so you can taste the flavors of all the ingredients. And you're in luck because I'm including the recipe down below!
Beef and Barley Soup
Makes 4 Servings
Ingredients
1 lb boneless round steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup pearl barley
5 cups water
2 beef bullion cubes
3 carrots, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black ground pepper
In a large saucepan, combine the meat, barley, water, and bullion; bring to a boil. Skim off any foam, then add the carrots, onion, celery, salt, and pepper; bring back to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for approx. 45 minutes.
Optional: stir in 1 cup sliced mushrooms at the end, then cook, covered, an additional 10 minutes.
Approximately 260 calories per serving
If you like my photography (and many of you tell me you do), PLEASE leave comments on my pictures throughout this year. I don't know if I'll be able to continue without that encouragement. Also needed will be suggestions for photography subjects or locations. I'm always looking for ideas!
