Steps:
- Cook the barley in the broth along with the chopped sun-dried tomatoes for about 30-40 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed and the barley is tender. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- Mix the oil, vinegar and mustard thoroughly.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the barley mixture (green onions through feta cheese), stir, and then add the oil and vinegar mixture, stirring again.
- Add salt and pepper if needed for your taste.
- Variations:
- •Serve on a bed of torn romaine with some chicken for a main dish.
- •Add toasted pine nuts.
- •Use fresh tomatoes instead of sun-dried, if you have good tomatoes available.
- •Use fresh oregano (1 Tbsp instead of 1 tsp) if you have fresh herbs available.
- For vegetarian use only the vegetable broth.
