This vegetable barley avgolemono (Greek lemon chicken soup) is easy to make from scratch, filled with whole grains and fresh veggies, and so comforting. It's perfect for the freezer too! When we moved a year and a half ago, even though it was just one town over, many of our routines changed. We ...
