Position outer ring over fabric and twist to secure attractively. Directions to enclose with the gift: Type or hand write the following directions to include with the soup mix: Cook 1 pound of lean ground beef in a large pot. While meat is cooking remove the seasoning and pasta bags from the jar. Pour the remaining contents of jar in a colander, wash thoroughly and drain.

Add pasta, and simmer another 15 minutes. This recipe makes 8 servings. Each serving contains approximately 201 calories and 4 grams of fat. Another recommendation is to consume at least half of all grains as whole grains and to increase whole grain intake by replacing refined grains with whole grains.

Pearl barley is a grain but the bran has been removed.
