ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION SALAD
I found this in The Week magazine - nice diversion to craziness going on in the world. Tweaked a bit and voila! It would probably work with barley, as well. PS I did use barley; and although it was tasty, it would have been just as good without any grains. Also, next time I will cut up the asparagus before roasting!

Steps:
- 1. Bring a small pot of salted water to boil, add cracked wheat. Cover and simmer until tender - about 20 minutes.
- 2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tsp soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, pinches of sea salt and pepper. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons oil, whisking constantly.
- 3. Drain grain and stir into dressing while warm.
- 4. Heat oven to 425ºF. Spread asparagus and scallions on a rimmed baking sheet. (I line mine with foil.) Drizzle with oil, 1/2 tsp soy sauce and pinches of salt and pepper. Roast until slightly charred, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- 5. Toss salad greens in the bowl with the grain and dressing until coated. Put on serving plates. Add asparagus and scallions; shave parmesan over top.
