List of Ingredients
1 cup uncooked barley, quick-cooking variety
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbles
1 T. capers
1 tsp. fresh dill, minced
1/4 cup scallions, minced (green parts only)
4 tsp. lowfat vinaigrette
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. lemon zest, freshly grated
Description
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a medium-size pot; stir in barley and salt. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until barley is tender, about 10 minutes. (There may be some water in the pot. If so, cover the barley and set it aside for 10 minutes for the liquid to be absorbed. Or you can drain the barley.)
Spoon cooked barley into a serving bowl; add cheese, capers, dill, scallions, vinaigrette, pepper and lemon zest. Stir in gently but well; serve warm. Yields about 3/4 cup per serving.`
