Share! OK, I tried a brand new recipe today, & it was GREAT! It was a cold barley salad & though I wasn't sure about it I found out it was really worth the effort! We're getting so tired of rice and potatoes, this salad really made our night (we served it with a roasted pork tenderloin and caesar salad).
OK, here's ours:
3 cups cooked barley (follow directions - the hulled barley - not the pearled - is the best fiber source, but it takes longer to cook)
8-10 small radishes, very thinly sliced
1 medium bell pepper, small to medium diced
3-5 scallions (depending on your taste) thin sliced
1/2 cup feta cheese
1/3-1/2 cup Greek dressing (depends on your taste - we like it a little bit drier, so we used the smaller amount)
dash salt
pinch fresh ground pepper
Cook barley & cool. Mix with all ingredients EXCEPT dressing & refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Just before serving, toss well with dressing (I made it in a tupperware container for ease of tossing). PERFECTO!
