Barley Salad is a wholesome dish rooted in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, celebrated for its hearty texture and vibrant flavors. Made with fiber-rich barley as the base, it's typically combined with fresh ingredients like cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, parsley, and red onions, then tossed in a zesty dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, and seasonings. Some variations include nuts, dried fruits, or feta cheese for added texture and taste. Barley Salad is packed with nutrients, offering a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The whole grain barley supports digestion, heart health, and sustained energy levels. Olive oil contributes healthy fats, while the fresh vegetables provide essential vitamins and hydration. However, high amounts of cheese or oil may increase the calorie count, so portion control is key for those watching their intake. Perfect as a light meal or side dish, Barley Salad is both nourishing and delicious.
