Crock Pot Tuscan Vegetable Beef Barley Soup – A family favorite that’s beyond simple to prepare and tastes oh so delectable. Enjoy every last drop!
Soups are a staple in my house. We have soup for dinner at least twice a week and throughout the year.
Especially when I make the soups in my handy dandy crock pot. It’s so easy. No fuss and always delicious.
Here is our newest version of barley soup. This time I added beef. You can easily make it without the meat too.
We happen to have two other barley soups on the blog, one with chicken and one vegetarian. Check them both out and be sure to try this one too.
The meat falls apart and is so tender while the soup is so hearty and tasty.
Grab some crusty bread, or some homemade garlic bread along with a tossed salad to round out the meal. But, it’s just perfect on it’s own too.
