Vegetable Soup II

SUBMITTED BY: Paula Campbell 

"This is a favorite with our family. Serve with homemade bread, rolls or crackers. Make sure you soak your barley overnight if you do not have the quick cooking kind. I like to let the soup sit off the heat for about an hour when it's done to help bring out the full flavor. Yum!!"
