I don't know about most cooks, but recipes are just suggestions and inspiration for me. Sometimes like in the case of today's blog, I don't even use a recipe. When making soup it's easy to do.
I open up the refrigerator to see what I have and go to the pantry to see what's in there.
Plus I also keep a supply of bone broth in my freezer. I put today's recipe together from things I had on hand.
Beef Barley Soup
6 cups beef bone broth
2 cups of cooked beef (sliced into bite sized pieces)
1/2 white onion chopped
4 ounces of white button mushrooms sliced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 carrots chopped
1/2 pint of grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup of frozen green beans
1/4 cup purple barley ( can use any kind of barley)
salt and pepper to taste
Put the beef broth into a large stockpot. Add the rest of the ingredients. Bring the soup mixture to a simmer. Add the barley and let cook for 20 minutes to cook the barley.
Makes 6 servings
