Beef and Barley Soup

I like to make this soup when we have leftover steak.

1 pound steak, cubed
½ teaspoon thyme
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic
2 bay leaves
1 pound carrots, sliced
1 can (16 ounces) crushed tomatoes
1 to 1 ½ cups barley

Place steak in stockpot and cover with water. Simmer until meat is tender. Do not drain; liquid will serve as beef stock.
