This soup is hearty and has great flavor. I like barley in soups instead of rice and this is a great use of barley.

This soup is not worth the effort. It's bland and boring.

This soup is way too salty. I had to add a lot of water to make it edible.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out bland. I think I might have added too much water.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out great. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and dinner was ready when I got home.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some leftover rice and it was delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of barley, but I really enjoyed this soup. The barley was cooked perfectly and it didn't have a strong flavor.
