This Beef-Barley Soup is a perfectly named soup! On a cold, damp day, the hearty flavors and textures really hit the spot, without doing any damage to my waistline. Especially good with 7 Up biscuits.

Pure comfort food. My grandmother made a version of this quite often when I was a kid, and it was always my favorite.
I like everything about this recipe. It is indeed heartwarming, healthy and flavorful.
