How To Make beef barley lentil soup

Step 1

Put the meat into a 5-qt. slow cooker. Layer with onion, potatoes, celery, carrots, lentils, and barley.

Step 2

Combine the water, bouillon, salt and lemon pepper; pour over vegetables. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until vegetables and barley are tender.
Step 3

Add the tomatoes; cook 2 hours longer.
Step 4

Can use ground beef instead of stew beef. Brown beef with onion before putting in slow cooker. If you have to leave for more than 6 hours, you could add the tomatoes at the start, but use chopped tomatoes instead of stewed.
