Preparation

Step 1

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.
