A delicious beef and vegetable soup to warm you deep from within.
Let this soup simmer on your stove and the whole house starts to smell warm and inviting. A delicious cold weather meal! Barley gives this soup some heartiness or, if you are gluten free, use rice! It’s delicious either way!
You can add any vegetable that you’d like, fresh or frozen. I used frozen because I’m, well, the lazy gastronome!
Pretty simple to make too!
Here’s how you do it:
First cook the beef. Put it in a kettle with 2 cups of broth and simmer for 30 – 45 minutes – until the it’s semi-tender.
Next, add the remaining broth, the tomatoes and barley and simmer for 1 hour, until the barley and the beef are tender. The room will start to smell warm and savory! You can keep it warm on the stove as long as you want – or until you’re ready to eat.
Make sure you add the frozen vegetables last and cook only until heated through. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve this soup up hot and steamy with some warm bread on the side.
Makes approximately 4 servings.

I appreciate you listing a gluten free alternative for the barley. My family is gluten free. I believe we were in the same Blogelina last fall. :D ~Adrienne
I had to be gluten free for a few years to control gal bladder disease. I know a lot of little tricks like that – and I’ll try to remember to include them in the recipes! Thanks for stopping by.
