Barley Salad/Healthy Weight Loss Barley Salad/Summer Special Barley Salad

Barley Salad made with fresh vegetables is refreshing, light and filling salad that keeps us going throughout the day. If we have weight loss in our wish list, then including Barley in our diet is a vital step. Barley is available as either whole or pearled. Whole barley retains all the nutrients and fiber; pearled barley is more readily available in most supermarkets. Pearled barley has the bran layer removed, is steamed and polished, so they cook faster.

 Barley can be consumed in different ways like barley soup, barley porridge, barley water or it can be used in place of white rice as well. To be honest, barley has not been my first choice to make salad or replace it with rice, but once I tried barley salad, I just got hooked to it. Do try this Barley Salad and post your comments here.
