Mushroom Barley and Collards Soup image

This is a recipe I found when DH kept hounding me for a mushroom soup one winter! It is a great way to get some greens and whole grains in, even in the winter if you use frozen greens. I'm sure any could sub for the collards, and you could vary the taste (ie make it zippier with mustard greens, etc.). I hope you enjoy it!
