This is a nice fresh, healthy, salad. A nice change from green, rice and pasta salads. It's even better the next day.

This was really good. I left out the cucumbers per personal preference and added about 1/2 cup of Italian dressing because the barley seemed to soak it up fast. Great healthy salad for a buffet with really great colors. Thanks!1Reply

I made some changes, and it was just Ok for me. Instead of rosemary I substituted basil. I didn't have any veg. broth, so I used beef broth. The garbanzos were crunchy and hurt my teeth. The colors were very appealing to the eye. I really liked your baked beans recipe, however.Reply
