Ingredients You'll Need
1 cup pearl barley
1 can vegetable broth
1/2 cup fresh vegetables, diced
3 or 4 sun-dried tomatoes, diced
Directions
Cook the barley according to package directions, substituting the vegetable broth for water. While the barley cooks, dice your veggies (use whatever you like - zucchini, green beans, peppers, etc) and steam them briefly, so they're crisp-tender. Note that you can even steam the veggies over the barley as it cooks. When the barley is done, mix in the sun-dried tomatoes and steamed vegetables. Can be served warm or cold.
