Beef Barley Soup

Who doesn’t love a great bowl of homemade soup? For those of you that know me personally, you know that I love a delicious bowl of soup! I make it at least once a week for my family at Casa Linda during the winter months (Casa Linda is a name I gave my home here in New Mexico). I like making my own broth and freezing it so have on hand for batches of soups or stews. For Christmas we had prime rib and I used the bones to make beef broth, and even my precious dog Buster got to have some fresh beef broth over his dry food. (He loves me the most and now you know why, it will be our little secret.) The bones from the prime rib make some amazingly great broth so I froze it in three batches. Here is the first batch of soup. Beef Barley loaded with potatoes, carrots, green beans, peas, corn and barley. It was superb!
