I didn't have any leftover turkey, so I used chicken instead. It turned out just as well.

The soup was too thick for my taste. I would add more water next time.

I found the soup to be a bit bland. I think I would add more spices next time.

I love the addition of leftover turkey to this soup. It adds a lot of extra flavor and makes the soup even more filling.

Wow, this soup was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and hearty, and the barley added a nice chewy texture.
