How do you change the serving size...for 10 is too much for me

Cut the recipe in half and then in half again if it's still too large of an amount for you. P.S. Soup freezes well. Let cool completely before freezing and allow at least an inch of space between the soup and the top of your container.

I make this ever year when the weather gets cool. My whole family loves it and now when my relatives and friends tasted it, they had to have the recipe and they make it too! I'm making it this week again, so good!

I tried to cook this in a slow cooker, but it takes along time (8 hrs) for the barley to become soft. With a little tweeking for my personal taste, (seasoning) it turned out ok.
