This one was pretty good, I still don't think it tops the Wheat Berry Salad. But, still good. Maybe not for dinner though. I am going to stick with eating them cold for lunch. Maybe making a batch for the week and just keeping it in the fridge. YUM!
Pin It
My three year old actually finished his whole bowl - I was shocked! I did have to add avocado's, because he will eat almost anything if it has avocado's.
Barley is like Wheat Berries. I nice chewy texture full of heart healthy fiber. Whole grains can fight against cholestorol, High Blood Pressure, and Cardiovascular Disease. And they are high in Protein!

3/4 tsp. Salt
4 tsp. Olive Oil
