Beef Barley Soup

When it's cold outside like it is here, I just can't get enough soup. It fills me up and leaves me nice and warm inside. Beef barley has always been one of my favorite soups, and it's one that works well with the Noom food plan.

Beef Barley Soup: 459 Calories for a big bowl


2.5 oz of any kind of leftover beef or quickly stir fry some fresh beef, 91 calories
2 cups Imagine low sodium beef broth, 40 calories
1/4 cup frozen peas 31 calories
1/2 can of diced canned tomatoes, 45 calories
1/2 cup chopped onion, 32 calories
2 medium carrots, chopped, 50 calories
1/3 cup dry quick-cooking barley
Whatever seasonings you like. I used Jane's Crazy Mixed-Up salt and pepper

Put everything in a sauce pan and cook until the barley is tender. You will probably have to add a cup of water as it cooks. If you make it ahead of time and refrigerate it, it will thicken even more and will require more water as you reheat it.
