This flavorful beef barley and soup is easy to make on the stovetop and gets its extra savory flavor from mushrooms. Serve this great tasting soup with freshly baked biscuits or cornbread. 

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup onion (chopped)
  • 2 ribs celery (chopped)

  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1/4 cup barley
  • 4 to 8 ounces stewed beef (diced)

Steps to Make It
