Brown Rice Beef Barley Soup

Recently I ate a beef barley soup at Canadian Tim Horton. I usually eat potato – bacon or broccoli cream soup there. Whenever I’m in any restaurant I eat always the same food. I’m not sure why. Maybe because I know that I like it already. But this time they didn’t have my favorite potato bacon soup so I’ve decided to go with beef barley soup.

Yum! It was very good. When I came home I already new that I will be making this soup at home. I just made my own way. To the addition of the barley I added some brown rice. Carrots are always in my home so I knew they will be in beef barley soup as well.

Soups are often seen in my home. They are delicious and healthy. I have my own favorite soups like Broccoli Cheddar Soup or Crock Pot Chili. But some my favorite European soups are difficult to make in Canada. I just can’t buy necessary ingredients that are required.

This beef barley soup I made in crock pot. First, I cooked my beef first in the frying pan, then I transferred into the crock pot. The whole process of making this hearty beef barley soup wasn’t long.
