After tinkering with three different recipes, I came up with this warming rich, dark brown broth with hearty mushrooms, barley and onions. It’s a beefy tasting soup for my meat loving husband, completely vegan for me and healthy for both of us. It can simmer all day in a crock pot or be served up right after preparation.

Tip

Thicken Barley and Bean Soup

Barley and beans absorb a lot of soup broth. If you like barley in your soup but the leftovers are too thick, add extra chicken, beef or vegetable broth to leftovers while reheating to achieve the desired consistency.
