I love the addition of feta cheese to this salad. It adds a nice salty flavor that really balances out the sweetness of the vegetables.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a bunch of random veggies in my fridge and this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.

I'm not a huge fan of barley, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is light and flavorful and the vegetables are fresh and crisp. I would definitely make this again.

This is a great salad for meal prep. I make a big batch on the weekend and then eat it for lunch throughout the week. It's also really good as a side dish with grilled chicken or fish.
