This is such a neat site. I wish more people would post recipes.
Here is a good recipe for Beef Barley soup.With cooler weather coming this would make a quick and easy meal when you are out camping.
Beef Barley Soup
2 cups diced potatoes
3 cups diced carrots
3 cups diced celery (I use 1 can green beans in place of celery)
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup beef base
8 ounces tomato sauce
2 cups chopped beef roast
8 cups Water
2 cups barley (cooked, rinsed well)
Combine all ingredients except barley in kettle. Add water. Boil until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Add barley, cook 15 minutes.
Makes 8 to 12 servings.
NOTE: Additional water may be needed to acquire desired consistency. If adding water, additional beef base should also be added.
How to cook barley: Bring 11/4 cup of water to boil. Add 1/2 cup barley and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to boil again, reduce heat. cover.
Cook on low heat for about 25 minutes or till tender and water is just about gone. Barley will be a little firm. Rinse and add to soup .
NOTE: The amount of carrots and potatoes and meat are really up to you.
I agree, the more recipes we share the more fun we have! I think this is a lot more fun then any cookbook can ever be. We shared recipes without having another cookbook in our collection. I think people are only going to put their tried and true recipes on this forum. One of the many ways to be connected no matter where we live or where we are. We all have our own reason for checking out all the sights on this forum. A way to learn and have fun. That is a part of what life is all about!

I agree with you. I have lots of cookbooks and lots of places on the net I can find recipes, yet I love to come here, read and copy the recipes and hear everyones stories about them. I have also made several of the recipes and plan on making lots more. Keep the recipes and the stories coming!.....
