Vegetable Barley Stew



So, I'm working on my cholesterol so that hopefully I can wean myself off my meds. I got this low cholesterol cookbook and marked a handful of recipes to try. They include lots of seasonings, so don't worry, healthy doesn't have to equal "blah". This was really good, but I'm thinking on a cool fall day or cold winter night it would be even better.

3/4 pound beef round steak
2 tbls flour
1 tsp paprika
2 tbls olive oil
2 onions, chopped
4 cups beef broth
4 carrots, thickly sliced
3 potatoes, cubed
8 oz package sliced mushrooms
3 cups water
1 tsp dried marjoram leaves
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
3/4 c barley
