I promised you all this recipe a few days ago, but I fell behind. It's here now so I guess that's what counts right? This is a really great recipe it’s nice and hardy and a perfect fall recipe! I am not a fan of fresh mushrooms, but I really enjoyed this soup. The flavor is very earthy and smooth. It has really nice creaminess to it which I was not anticipating.  

The recipe couldn’t be easier to put together. I actually made it while making something else that night for dinner. I kind of put it together on a whim. The part that takes the longest is just waiting on the barley to be cooked through. When the barley is ready so your soup.

The recipe yield is 4 servings and at least in our case it was exactly four generous servings, not any more than that.  If you are anticipating big eaters or extra guest you might want to double the recipe. Delicious!

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups chopped onions

  • ½ cup quick-cooking barley, uncooked
  • 1 teaspoon reduced-sodium Worcestershire sauce
