Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 3 large carrots diced
  • 3 ribs of celery diced
  • 1 1/2 lbs extra lean ground beef
  • 3/4 tsp. dried thyme
  • 2 dried basil
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1 28 oz. can no salt added diced tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp. tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 4 cups no salt added beef broth (or more, if required)*
  • 1 cup dry pot barley
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Turn on the stove to medium-high heat and add oil to a large sauce pan. Add onion, garlic, carrots and celery to pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add beef and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until no longer pink. Add spices and cook for an additional minute.
  • Add remaining ingredients to the pot, give the mixture a good stir and turn up stove to high. Bring to a boil. Turn heat down to medium low and simmer for 30 minutes or until barley is cooked and vegetables have softened. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Notes

* The soup tends to thicken up the longer it sits, so you may wish to add more broth before serving
