Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1/3 cup barley
- 1 med onion chopped
- 1 green pepper chopped
- 3 tomatoes chopped (or 15 oz can chopped tomatoes)
- 6 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper chopped
- 15 oz can beans
Directions:
I LOVE barley and use it every chance I get!
This takes a while to make but is really no effort.
Simmer 1/3 C barley in 4.5 C water for 45 minutes. After 30
minutes have passed - Get a large frying pan with 1 tbs oil,
add garlic and onion. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the green
pepper and simmer 3 minutes more. Add the rest of
ingredients and the drained barly. Simmer that for 20
minutes (covered) and 10 minutes uncovered.
To serve a group - double the tomatoes, beans, and barley.
I use a crock pot (after the barley is cooked and the
onions sauteed). DO NOT double the jalapeno because the heat
builds in slow cooking (unless you LIKE hot).
MY WAY - well, I use 3 jalapenos and 2 green chillies in a
double recipe but most folks find that too hot.
Serves: 2-3
Preparation time: 1.5 hr
