MEXICAN BARLEY PILAF
I got this recipe from Yahoo! Health. It was posted there by miavita. This was very tasty and a nice departure from rice or pasta and a great way to eat whole grains. My husband will not eat beans, so I substituted corn for the black beans and it turned out great. Also, I was too lazy to chop onion and used some dried minced onion instead. I didn't have jalapenos on hand and still wanted the heat, so just added some red pepper flakes along with the other spices.
