Sounds good. I make a similar one, but I don't put in carrots and cellery. Also, I cook it on the stove. I follow the one from the Spice and Spirit. Does anyone make a creamy mushroom barley soup? My husband likes mine, but we want to experiment and try a creamy one.

I kind of just put in whatever amounts I want, this recipe isn't from a cookbook so im guessing amounts... but its basically this:

fry one big onion
3/4 package of mushrooms
and 2 carrots

fill pot with water
add 1/2 cup-3/4 cup barley (depending on your pot
a table spoon of salt
1/2 table spoon pepper

1 0r two tablespoons of tamari (or soy sauce if u dont have tamari) sauce

Its really delicious and easy to make! Pm me if you need any more info about this soup...
