2 carrots, sliced (about 1 cup) |
1 teaspoon lawry's seasoned salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 cup quick-cooking barley (i like quaker brand) |

1. Heat oil in a large soup pot. Add garlic and jalapeno and saute for 1 minute. 2. Pour in water and chicken broth and bring to a boil then add broccoli bottoms and carrots. 3. Bring back up to a boil then add Lawry's, pepper, crushed red pepper, lemon juice, ginger, and barley. 4. Boil for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. |
