Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup navy beans or white kidney beans soaked overnight or quick soak method, see notes below
- 1 red onion
- 4 large carrots
- 2 cups frozen peas
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 cup pot barley
- 10 cups low sodium vegetable broth
- 1.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 handfuls baby spinach
- salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel and quarter your onion and peel your carrots. Add them to a food processor and process until finely chopped. If you do not have a food processor, you may finely chop by hand. Then transfer them to a large pot.
- Add all remaining ingredients except the spinach to the same pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer with the lid on, but slightly askew for 30-40 minutes until the barley and beans are tender.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the spinach. The spinach will wilt quickly and then serve.

Notes
- To soak your beans overnight, cover them with cool water two inches above the beans to allow room for them to grow. Drain when ready to use.
- If you did not soak the beans overnight, boil some water in a pot or kettle and cover the beans with the boiling hot water for 30 minutes. Then drain and use as directed.
- To make the soup gluten free, you may use brown rice instead of barley.
- Leftovers keep refrigerated for 3-4 days or freeze them airtight for up to 3 months.
