Italian
Beef Barley Soup

Nothing is more comforting than a bowl of soup to warm you from the inside out. Add some crusty bread, a crunchy green salad and some fruit for dessert to create a complete meal.

To vary this soup you can add 1 cup chopped canned tomatoes to a cup of beef broth, or a cup of sautéed chopped mushrooms. This soup freezes well, so consider making a double batch and freezing half of it in individual-sized containers. It’s definitely worth making your own rich beef broth for this soup. To make things a little easier, make the broth ahead of time and freeze it.

Enjoy your meal!
