Description

I LOVE soup! This is one of my favorites. It has lots of vegetables and is full of flavor. I usually throw in some chopped cabbage. To make this a vegetarian recipe, use vegetable broth for the chicken broth.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 ½ cups water
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can peeled and diced tomatoes with juice
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can chicken broth
  • ¼ cup uncooked barley
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
  1. 1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the onions, celery, carrots, garlic and oil and saute for 5 to 10 minutes, or until all vegetables are almost tender.
  2. 2. Then add the water, fresh tomatoes, canned tomatoes, chicken broth, barley and ground black pepper.
  3. 3. Stir thoroughly and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, or until barley is tender.
