SPINACH, MUSHROOM, & BARLEY PILAF
A hearty warm comfort food that's a snap to prepare (most of the cooking time is totally inactive). Serves 4 as a main affair, 6 as a sidekick. A very versatile recipe...I occasionally add dehydrated sun-dried tomatoes to the barley as it cooks for a deep tomatoey undertone.

MUSHROOM BARLEY PILAF
It sounds basic, but it is soooo good! Cook time can be rushed although slow cooking yields the bEsT flavor. I generally use baby portabello mushrooms when I make this.
