Ingredients

    1 c. cooked barley
    1 c. vegetable broth (or 3, I did not have enough!)
    1 vegetable bullion + 2 c. distilled water
    * Chop all veggies about the same size!
    1 c. celery chopped
    1/2 medium onion
    1 c. carrots chopped
    1 c. chopped and slightly pealed sweet potato
    1/4 c. green peas
    1/4. corn
    1/2 c. kale chopped
    1/2 c. spinach chopped
    1 can drained and rinsed chick peas

Directions

Prepare Barley in large pot.
Prep veggies (clean and chop)

Add broth, bullion, water, and celery, onion, carrot, and sweet potato. Saute for about 10-15 minutes.

If veggies are frozen add them (in my case, peas and corn), and chick peas.

Add spinach and kale, simmer for about 5-10 minutes. Try not to let veggies get mushy :)

Enjoy :)
