Mushroom Barley Risotto

1 tbsp olive oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
¼ cup white wine OR mushroom broth
1½ cups pearl barley
4 cups mushroom or vegetable broth
1 cup carrots, finely diced
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

In a large frying pan, heat oil over medium high heat.
Add onion and sauté until translucent, between 3-4 minutes.
Add garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds.
Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to release their moisture, between 7-9 minutes.
Add white wine and cook until reduced by half.
Pour mushrooms into slow cooker.
Add carrots, barley, vegetable broth, thyme, salt and pepper.
Cover and cook for 3 hours on high or 6 hours on low.
