I hadn't had barley before and find I don't really care for it. I didn't like the mushrooms when having the leftovers so I picked them out. Have had much better soups. Won't make again.

This turned out great. Didn't change anything. Used Chicken stock and served with oyster crackers. May make some cornbread to go with the leftovers. Made this for myself so have lots of leftovers.

Very good, very heathly for a cold winter night. i threw in about a teaspoon of crushed red peppers with the spices and it added just enough heat. Also added some chopped fresh broccoli. Delicious. Served with warm cornbread.
