  1. Was looking for something to use my barley in. I am trying to incoporate healthier grains into my diet. This was really good. I did not have the green pepper and I don't like cilantro. I used regular sour cream and added just a little ranch dressing and a tomato. Made for a nice lunch salad. Thanks for the good recipe.
