  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 cups chopped kale or spinach
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
  • Mix in the minced garlic and continue cooking for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir the barley into the mixture, allowing it to toast slightly for about 2 minutes.
  • Add the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer.
  • Allow to cook uncovered for about 30-40 minutes or until the barley is tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • Once the barley is tender, mix in the chopped kale or spinach, cooking for an additional 5-10 minutes until wilted.
  • Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon for brightness if desired.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy it hot. This soup pairs perfectly with crusty bread.
