Hearty Bean & Barley Soup
This hearty bean and barley soup makes a warming and satisfying meatless meal. And it’s so easy to change this up and add your favorites. Not a fan of kidney beans? Try garbanzo or cannellini beans. Kale or arugula make a great substitute for spinach. Serve with crusty bread or stir in some croutons for extra crunch.
