Nutritional Info Per Serving: N/A
2 cups thinly sliced carrot
1 cup sliced celery
3/4 cup chopped green pepper
1 large onion sliced
1 16 oz. can tomatoes, cut up
2/3 cup barley
1/4 cup snipped parsley (I have used dried)
1 tbsp. instant beef bouillon granules
2 tsp. salt (I usually leave out)
3/4 tsp dried basil, crushed
5 cups water
Rehydrated dried mushrooms (this isn't in the original recipe, but I like it)
This makes a very thick, hearty soup. I think if you added more meat it could be a supper with salad and some good bread. I like it when it is cold for Sukkot.
