Place in large roasting pan and fully drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat. Place in 350 degree oven and roast until vegetables are tender and turning color. Once they are soft, tomatoes may be removed early. All other vegetables should have a nice caramel tone. Do not over roast. Remove vegetables from oven and place in large soup kettle. Cover with about 3/4 of the water. Add kale, chickpeas and barley. Bring to a boil and then immediately reduce heat to a slow simmer, covered. Do not let soup boil. Check broth for strength. If flavor is weak, simmer with lid off. If flavor is too heavy, add a little more water. Remove bay leaves. Adjust salt to taste. Creative options: The barley makes this a very substantial soup. For a lighter soup, use 1/2 C pearled barley. To add protein and stay vegetarian, add other canned beans like kidney or cannellini. Community Calendar Info: Scotch & Soda (blue rock).
