Just wanted to say that my family &amp; I really enjoyed this soup for meatless monday tonight.  I did not get my act together to get it in the crockpot, but it translated quite seamlessly to stovetop and was ready in under 45 minutes.  I just sautéed the onion, celery and garlic in a little olive oil, added the rest of the ingredients, brought to a boil, then reduced to a low simmer.  It only took about 30 minutes for the barley, lentils and all veggies to be tender.  So yummy and satisfying!  Will definitely make again!

Made this for my daughter who needed a healthy and hearty meal to take for night shift tonight. It was so easy to put together and really delicious. Thanks for a wonderful recipe.

I got 110 cal per  serving  using Calorie Count (caloriecount.com)

This turned out okay, but it seemed like it was missing something. My boyfriend added just a hint of chipotle sauce, and it turned into PERFECTION. I think any source of tanginess (which is what I think the chipotle sauce added) would make this great. Love the wholesome consistency!

I made this as is, without the celery (omitted: cooked celery rant).  It cooked exactly as you said it would...3 hours, smelled amazing, great thickness/consistency. I've already shared the recipe with a slow cooker FB group I'm in.   A big hit and I know I'll be revisiting this one soon and often!

I made this and just added chopped potatoes, Tomato Sauce and Corn. 
It was delicious!

This was delicious and super easy. I've been eating mushroom barley my entire life but assumed it was hard.  My crockpot was in use, so I used Dutch oven. Put all veggies on first,  let them roast a bit then just cooked all for few hours. I used portobellos cause I had them.... I'd make it again in a heartbeat!!

I made this soup with modifications. Did not use a bay leaf and very little thyme. I like carrots but did like them in the soup. Next time I will leave the carrots out and add spinach. Thank you for the great recipe!

Not a favorite - the flavor was kind of overpowering, and not in a good way.
