List of Ingredients
3/4 cup pearl barley
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 onions chopped
2 celery stalks chopped
1 1/2 pounds mushrooms sliced
4 cups low-sodium beef broth
3 carrots sliced
2 tablespoons tomato paste (no salt added)

1. In a large saucepan, stir the barley and 4 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the barley is partially cooked, about 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, heat the oil. Add the onions and celery; cook, stirring as needed, until softened, 6-8 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring as needed, until the mushrooms begin to soften and release their liquid, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the broth, carrots, tomato paste and barley with its liquid; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, stirring as needed, until the barley and carrots are tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in the salt and pepper; serve, garnished with the parsley.
