Split Pea and Barley Soup

A nice soup especially if you like barley.
I tend to invent as I cook most of the time
and this soup turned out very well.

Ingredients:
1 cup green split peas
1/2 cup pearl barley
1 cup vegetable stock
1/4 cup dry chopped onion
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons spicy mustard (prepared)
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
dash soy sauce
ground pepper (to taste)
1 carrot

Directions:
Shred the carrot. Combine everything in a
medium sized stock pot and bring to a boil.
Turn the heat down and let simmer approximately 1 hour,
or until the peas fall apart and the barley is tender.
While it simmers, keep an eye on it and add more
stock if it starts to look dry.
