POTATO-BEEF BARLEY SOUP



Potato-Beef Barley Soup image

I originally got this recipe off of the Kathie Lee and Regis show about 14 years ago. It quickly became a family favorite and through the years I have changed the recipe a bit. Tastes wonderful with a warm crusty bread. I have added a can of corn for variety. Also, red or yellow peppers can be used with green to add beautiful color.

BEEF AND BARLEY SOUP III



Beef and Barley Soup III image

This is what I consider the ultimate beef soup. Great on a frosty day. For beef stock, I use 2 1/2 quarts water and 6 teaspoons beef base. Also, use inexpensive red wine. No need for the good stuff here, and cheaper actually works better! Try with leftover pot roast.

SAUSAGE BARLEY SOUP



Sausage Barley Soup image

This is a nice soup recipe with a lot of texture and flavor. It is a welcome change for those weeks when there doesn't seem to be a lot of variety... and all 3 of my kids even loved it. This can also be cooked in a pan on the stove until the barley and carrot are tender, but I prefer the slow cooker method. The flavors seem to blend better.
