Fast and easy recipe. Added some ground red pepper for more zip. Omitted the green pepper. Overall, I thought it was a good recipe. Thanks for the recipe. Will make it again!

Oh wow! This was great! I didn't follow the directions well, but it still turned out awesome. I cooked the meat (I used venison steaks) in the slow cooker with a large can of beef broth and a chicken bouillon cube and 1 cup water. Which I still used for the soup. But I did add an additional small can of beef broth and 2 cubes of bouillon with 8 oz. water. I didn't have frozen veggies so I used canned. I added extra celery and onions. Also doubled the barley like some of the reviews mentioned. I also added ground red pepper to add more zip. My family loved it, even my kids! Look forward to making it again!!!!!!!

I made this with canned yams. It turned out great. It is sweet, but the kid's loved it!!!! It didn't seem too sweet. I also put marshmallows on top. Thanks for the new recipe.
