Add 1 diced onion and 1 diced carrot to the pot. Cook until the barley is tender and the vegetables are soft, about 20 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in 1 handful of spinach leaves and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 4
Ladle the soup into bowls and top each with 2 tablespoons of shredded Swiss cheese. Serve hot.
