Every Friday we make pots of soup to use up any leftovers we have from the Wednesday lunches we cook for everyone. This is one of our absolute favorites.

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 Cup onion, diced (1 medium)
  • 1 qt. water
  • 1 Cup celery, diced (about 2 ribs)
  • 1 Cup potatoes, diced (1 very large)
  • 1 Cup carrots, cut into coins (about 4)
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. GROUND BLACK PEPPER
  • 1/2 tsp. CALIFORNIA BASIL
  • 1 WHOLE TURKISH BAY LEAF
  • 1/2 tsp. THYME
  • 1 16 oz. can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 Cup quick-cooking barley, cooked according to package directions
       

In a large soup kettle, brown the ground beef. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes. Add the water and stir in the celery, potatoes, carrots, salt, PEPPER, BASIL, BAY LEAF, and THYME. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and the juice they were packed in, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
