Nutty Barley Bake image

When I started bringing this distinctive dish to holiday dinners, a lot of people had never seen barley in anything but soup. They have since dubbed me "the barley lady", and now I wouldn't dare bring anything this dish. Even if I double the recipe, I come home with an empty pan. -Renate Crump, Los Angeles, California

I found this recipe to be a bit too complicated. I think there are easier ways to make a barley bake.

The barley was a bit too chewy for my liking. I think I would cook it for a little less time next time.

This bake was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

I made a few substitutions (used brown rice instead of barley and added some dried cranberries) and it still turned out great. This recipe is very versatile.

This was a great way to use up some leftover barley. I added some extra vegetables and it turned out great.

I'm not a huge fan of barley, but this recipe changed my mind. The barley was cooked perfectly and the overall dish was very flavorful.

This nutty barley bake was a hit with my family! The combination of barley, nuts, and vegetables was flavorful and hearty. The bake was also very easy to make, which is a plus on busy weeknights.
