I love soup. I make pots of it and put a one cup portion in my lunch many days of the week. DH gets soup in his lunch too. With some minor changes, I followed this recipe. I used up some mushrooms that needed to go and added a small package of frozen veggies. I used 8 oz of tomato sauce instead of tomato soup. This is very good and very satisfying. The little touch of barley and lentils is wonderful. I will make it again and again. It will warm you up also this winter.
