Perfect for soup diving...

In a slow cooker (crockpot), combine all ingredients in the stoneware of slow cooker. Place on low temp and cook for 4-5 hours, with occasional stirring and checking for broth absorption by lentils and barley. If needed add water until desired. 

All raw ingredients in the soup, initial start 

On a stove, combine all ingredients in a large pot. Place temp on med-low to med... and allow cook for 1 hour 30 mins. On the stove, the pot must be watched closely for burning on the bottom of the pot. 

I prefer crockpot for my soups.. Set it and forget it lol
