Best Ever Beef And Barley Soup

This is the perfect soup for a cold winter day. It will fill you up it’s full of amazing flavor! The kids will love it too!




BEST EVER BEEF BARLEY SOUP

This soup is fantastic! Simply delicious and so healthy too! I love soup with barley in it and so do the kids. I like to make a big batch and freeze some. It’s always great to have some soup in the freezer for when someone gets sick.

This can also be made in the crock pot or slow cooker. After you brown you beef, add all ingredients to the crock pot. Cook on low for 4-6 hours or until carrots are cooked.

      If you add the word print at the end of the link it brings up a nice print friendly page.
