Mushroom Barley Soup

We replaced barley with quinoa and added some feta on top. It turned out delicious:)

Love it

A quick and delicious soup!

Can I use plain barley instead of pearled barley?

Hey Maryann, you can use plain barley instead of pearled barley if you'd like, but it will take a bit longer to cook, so you might need to adjust the cooking time. Uncooked quinoa would be a faster swap if that's accessible and desired 🫶

This is absolutely delicious. I did, however, have to use double the amount of water and it was still a thick soup. No liquid left to be soaked up with a nice slice of fresh bread unfortunately.

Yummy! I don’t like mushrooms, so I chopped them into fine pieces. This helped to avoid the chunks, while still giving it flavour and colour. Also, I used frozen kale. It’s winter here, and veggies tend to be on the pricey side.

Mmm love these modifications, Nancy, thanks so much! 🤩

Very flavourful. Here barley is a forgotten ingredient It's really delicious with mushroom and veggies.

Very easy to make and very satisfying! Perfect December soup.

Really yummy soup! The kale, beans and barely gave the soup lots of contrasting textures. Would 100% reccomend the lemon slice. It really bring everything together.

Whoop whoop! Thanks for sharing your experience with the soup, Molly 🙌✨

Very tasty and cozy now that the weather is getting colder. I used spinach (leftovers from the week before) instead of kale and better than bullion ‘no beef’ instead of the cubes. I do think kale would’ve been a better texture in this.

Great hearty soup. All I did to alter this was put it in my crockpot instead of cooking it in the stove. The house smells amazing and it’s super delicious.
