If you are watching what you eat then the mushroom and barley soup is ideal. Couple it with whole wheat toast and you have a nutrient-packed, fibre-dense meal ready! lemon juice and ground pepper add a nice wintery flavour, but if you do want to experiment, go ahead and add different seasonings. What sets this soup apart is the unique combination of flavours: soothing barley and the delicately flavoured mushroom. The result is a wonderful soup bursting with flavours, albeit all mild.
