Barley Lentil Mushroom Soup

There is nothing more satisfying than a warm hearty and delicious soup when it's cold outside. This soup is versatile (add whatever veggies you have lying around), easy and nutritious. Adding both barley and lentils makes this more nutritionally complete for the veggies out there, but feel free to just use one or the other if you'd prefer. And the servings are large! If you're having this on the side, you'll get a lot more servings than mentioned! (also it freezes really well too! so make a batch and freeze in single-serve tupperware for easy lunches/dinners!)Submitted by: KEMGRIA

I made this recipe around Jan 8, 2016. A couple things should be changed.
1. WAY too much lettuce in comparison to other ingredients.
2. Use vegetable stock instead of water. The recipe as is has very little flavor and is bland.
3. Definitely add potatoes/cauliflower, or some other veggies. - 1/12/16

Interesting that this was bland - with 3 large cloves of Garlic, the Onions and 3/4 tsp of Coriander there should have been a fair amount of flavor? Vegetable stock is a good idea. Note we mention bagged lettuce up to 6 cups give or take. The Chickpeas give it a buttery flavor in our experience.
