1 cup canned or fat free beef or chicken broth
1/2 cup quick cooking barley
2 tablespoon butter or margarine
8 oz crimini, baby portabello or button mushrooms, sliced
2 cups chopped (1/2 inch pieces) red, yellow and green bell peppers

4 cups fat free milk
2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or 2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Bring broth to a boil in a small saucepan. Add barley; cover and simmer over medium-low heat about 12 minutes or until tender.
