This is very healthy, and it was interesting to try. After tasting the carrot juice, I thought the stew would end up tasting very strongly of carrot. But both my husband and I thought the carrot flavor had cooked out and was not overwhelming. I maybe would have preferred a strong carrot flavor -- it sort of lost any distinct flavors, especially after a couple days. I am not experienced in cooking with barley, and I didn't find instant barley, so perhaps that is the reason I had to nearly double the liquids. Even after doubling, there was no broth to speak after the stew was finished. This is more than four servings -- more like six or seven. I'm not sorry I tried it, and we thought it was good. But I don't know if I'll be making it again. It doesn't have the kind of tastes that I would remember and crave again, I think. Too many really delicious and healthy recipes out there. It was, however, a nice, warm, hearty, and vegan -- if you skip the butter -- lunch for this week.

This is a wonderfully healthy recipe and very hearty; however, I don't like cooked carrots and cooking the barley in carrot juice left a cooked carrot flavor throughout the whole soup.

This is an outstanding soup! Great use of kale. I did not believe that it would cook in 11 minutes, but it does. Very hardy and well spiced.

This was great! It was just sweet enough to not want dessert. Had to use regular barley so I covered it and simmered it a little longer.

I had all the ingredients in the fridge, leftover from farmers market. I went on Food Network recipes with the ingredients and this recipe popped up.
I love it ! Filling, tasty, extra fresh flavor with the carrot juice, which I had never tasted before this recipe. It works well with all the veggies.
I had leftover chicken and tossed that in at the end. Yummy!!

This recipe turned out great! It was easy to put together and relatively quick to make. I used kale instead of the mustard greens. I couldn't find instant barley, so I used instant rice. I also added a little heat to the recipe with some korean hot sauce. I will definitely make this again.

I couldn't find instant barley so I had to substitute pearl barley and adjust the recipe accordingly. I also doubled the amount of carrots and celery because the pot looked empty after adding everything :P. The outcome was great and was an easy way to sneak carrots to my 2 year old who hates them.
