CHICKPEA AND VEGETABLE BARLEY BAKE



Chickpea and Vegetable Barley Bake image

Barley has to be my best food discovery of last year. It is really cheap and a little bit goes a long way in a dish because it really bulks out during cooking. Not to mention how healthy it is for you. This is my latest barley creation. You could have it as a side dish but I just split it between myself and my finance and it made a very filling meal for two.
