Beef Barley Soup

 

 This is a filling soup that may be eaten on its own. If you're anything like me, you'll want some fresh bread on the side to soak up all that wonderful broth.

 

2 tbsp oil

2 lb beef cut into cubes

8 oz mushrooms chopped

1 large carrot chopped

1 yellow onion diced

3 bay leaves

3 garlic cloves pressed

4 cups beef broth

1/2 cup barley

1 tbsp salt adjust to taste

1 tsp pepper adjust to taste

 

In a pot saute your beef in olive oil, then add your veggies. After a good sautesautes, add your seasonings. Then comes your broth. The last step is to add your barley and cook for twenty minutes.
