Beef Barley Soup

Didn’t use the wine or the gravy packet (is that actually a thing?) Added more beef bouillon since the first time it came out more as stew than soup. Also some more veggies. But as a base this recipe was fantastic.

It was good, kids hated it lol. I used 10oz sirloin and cooked it in the soup. 1 cup barley. Omitted the red wine, bell peper and used 2tbsp of tomato paste instead of the can.

I use a crushed beef boullion cube to taste, not the gravy packet. I add the barley the last 15 minutes of simmering as I like it chewy.
