When my children were young, I needed a soup that everyone would eat-something filling but also something delicious. My sons really liked barley soup from a can, so I decided to try making it myself. My boys are now young adults, and this is one of the first things they ask me to make when they come to visit. -Karla Johnson, Winter Haven, Florida
