Asian Vegetable Barley Soup

Step 1

Over medium-high heat add ¼ cup water to a large pot and water-saute onions and garlic for a few minutes until the onions become translucent.

Step 2

Add vegetable broth, water, barley, broccoli, and cauliflower to the pot. Heat for 10 minutes before adding the cabbage, spinach, and zucchini.

Step 3

Using a ladle, remove about 1/2 cup of the broth to a small bowl and add miso. Stir and mix until the miso dissolves. Add to the pot and stir to combine.

Step 4

Continue cooking until the barley is done and the vegetables are tender for about 15-20 more minutes.
