Please your taste buds with this delicious homemade beef and barley soup recipe. Barley, with its infinite health supporting advantages, is a smart idea for a tasty and wholesome soup.

What is barley, you might ask? Well, besides being fermented for the making of beer, the whole grain barley is a healthy, high fiber, high protein food boasting numerous health benefits. It is a cereal grain and member of the grass family used in many health foods also.

When cooked, barley has a chewy texture and a kind of nutty flavor.

According to the FDA, barley’s soluble fiber reduces the risk of coronary heart disease. Barley also contains insoluble fiber, which reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes.

With less that 1 gram of fat per serving, barley is virtually fat-free and also cholesterol free. So, if you didn’t know what barley was, and all of its health benefits, you and your body are missing out.
