Beef Barley Soup

1 cup barley

2 lbs. beef, cooked - cut into 1” cubes

2 Tbsp. margarine

1 onion chopped

1 cup celery

1 cup carrots

6 cup beef broth

Salt and pepper to taste

Sauté celery, onions and carrots in margarine for 3 to 4 minutes or until tender.

Stir in barley and sauté an additional 2 minutes.

Combine all ingredients into a large stockpot. Bring to a boil.

Simmer until barley softens, approximately 1 to 1½ hours.

Water may need to be added, as the barley will soak up the liquid.
