Instant Pot Beef and Barley Soup Recipe

Instant Pot Beef and Barley Soup Recipe is one of my favorite ways to cook barley soup.

It is so much quicker to cook beef and barley soup in Instant Pot. The meat turns out super tender and barley cooks perfect in this pot.

Using parsnip instead of potato gives this soup extra good nutrients that is found in parsnip like EXTRA Fiber, Iron, Vitamin c and B-6 and Magnesium.

Have you tried cooking with parsnip? What is your favorite way to cook this root? Mine is in the soups like this easy barley soup.

Anyways, this is one delicious comforting soup recipe to make in the fall and winter season. You will love this one!

Also, feel free to add bell peppers, celery or pickles.  They all taste good in beef barley soup, specially pickles.
