Barley Stew Recipes

This is a delicious slightly more exotic version of Split Pea soup. It's filling, nutritious and really tasty! (It's also easy to make, and cheap!)

This is a thick, healthy stew with the added bonus of being high in fiber. It is flavorful and filling without being high in calories and can be served as a meal just by adding a salad and bread.

A yummy tomato and vegetable stew sure to take away those winter blechs!

A perfect slow-cooked meal that will keep you full and satisfied. Perfect for anytime of the year but exceptionally good on cold nights.

Slow Cooking is perfect for this lean cut of meat. Hulled or Pearl Barley packs a powerful fibre punch. This hearty stew will cure what ails you!

Healthy, flavorful one-pot dish

This is my husbands creation, with some of my alterations. Enjoy this very healthy meal! The picture is of the leftovers in this meal, in a tupperware container.

It's a rare, rainy and cold day here in Arizona. Perfect for a bowl of rich beef stew. Served with a bit of crusty bread it's a comforting and warm meal.

Each serving is approximately 1 1/2 cup.

not strictly vegetarian, but you could substitute vegetable broth

Great Cold Weather Stew

I make this, measure it into 1 1/2 cup serving dishes and freeze it. Lasts me awhile.

Each cup is a full meal with good carbs, protein, and vegetables. I have calculated it twice and I believe the calories are about 200 calories per 8oz/1cup. The Spark calculator might disagree but I think that estimate is a little light.

This recipe is very large. You need your biggest pot or a 6 quart crock pot. (Otherwise half the recipe!)

Slow Cooker Dish

It's also good if you add carrots and potatoes.

This slow-cooker stew takes just a few minutes to put together. It is delicious served with a little cheese or sour cream.

A comforting, filling and nutritious soup is the perfect meal for a busy weeknight. Saute some extra sliced mushrooms to use as a garnish, if desired.

This was a first try. You can add more variety in veggies and I would suggest much less barley. Tops a cup raw would be best.
