   Vegetable, beef, and barley soup:

   16 oz hamburger or stew beef

   14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes

   1 packet Knorr French Onion recipe mix/soup

   1 tsp Italian seasoning

   8 cups beef broth (I use Better Than Bouillion)

   4 cups water – omit for thicker, more stew-like

   1/2 cup red wine, optional

   1 cup onion (I used white)

   8 oz mushrooms, sliced and lightly chopped

   3-4 ribs celery, diced

   4 med carrots, diced

   1 potato, Russet, diced

   1/2 cup frozen green beans, optional

   1 cup barley (pearl barley, quick ok)

   Few sprigs of thyme, if desired, or 1/2 tsp dried

   Salt and pepper, to taste

   Preparation:

   Brown hamburger or stew beef in skillet. Drain fat, if any. Add to slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients. Cook on high 4 hours or low 6-7 hours.
