If you are making out your grocery lists go ahead and add this yummy soup to your menu this week! Hurry before the steamy temps arrive this weekend...40 degrees! Hey, in Iowa we wear shorts and tees to celebrate and in Cali, well they put on parkas and Uggs :) This soup started out as mushroom and barley soup until I brilliantly added leftover grilled steak to it and decided it should always have beef in it!
