Savory, luxurious and packed with vegetables, this Beef Barley Soup does not disappoint. Simmering marrow filled beef bones in the broth while the chucks of beef tenderize creates a rich, buttery result that you will love. A lot of other recipes use Oxtails instead of the bones, but I think I have unlocked a secret with the texture and flavor the alternative gives.

The first time I tried this soup my eyes rolled back, my lips curled into a smile, and I literally mmmmmmm’ed out loud. It’s that dang good. Chicken noodle soup is a household staple but this version will make it a weekly routine. With various ingredients such as pesto, miso, peas and lemon, this soup is perfection in my book.

If a slow cooked pot roast could marry your most favorite vegetable stew and have the most beautiful baby in the world, it would be this. It is warming, savory and layered with flavor. PLEASE give this one a try so that I can hear all about how it melted in your mouth. K, thanks!
