Ingredients

Soak 1 cup of pot, pearled or whole hulless barley overnight. The next day, in a slow cooker combine:
  • 1/2 Soaked barley (drained)
  • 1/2 chopped yellow pepper
  • 1/2 chopped red pepper
  • 1 chopped green pepper
  • 1 can onion, medium sized
  • 1 cup beef broth (284 mL) 
  • salsa (your choice hot, medium, or mild)

Directions

  1. Cook on high for 3 to 4 hours until barley is chewy. (If you would like to add meat, add sausage or ground beef, as desired.)
  2. Before serving, mix in 1 to 2 cups of grated cheese and 1/2 cup of sour cream.
  3. For additional eye appeal, put the final mixture in an oven casserole dish and top with cheese and paprika.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes at 350F. 

Serves 4 to 5 with meat added or 6 to 8 as a meatless side dish.
