Other than the rice I made this just like the recipe said, I used barley, we like barley you get a goo chew on it and it's a bit better for me than rice. It was very nice and would make it again I particularly liked the choice of herbs and I maybe put in just a wee bit more of them. thank you for posting. made for the diabetic forum.

great recipe! TY for posting! I made some changes however-portion control being one. I dbld ALL the veggies w/the expection of carrots, added 2 cans of S&W NW White Beans, peeled my potatoes, used all chicken broth, NO H20 here, and kept it @ 7 cups. I didn't hv any garlic, so I used Garlic Powder in place thereof. Fabulous w/sourdough rounds!

I love this soup, one of my favorite go to soups with brown rice! I make my own bone broth(15 hours) as stock so i dont use canned broth. The flavor is rich and the soup is full of veggies. I enjoy the brown rice as well. I also add fresh corn and 3 different squash to the veggie mix. I usually make this soup after a 5 day water cleanse or when its storming. Wonderful comfort food. Thank you for the recipe, my family and i really enjoy it.
