Roasted vegetable pearl barley with honey vinaigrette recipe

10 ratings

Nutty pearl barley pairs perfectly with a honey dressing and an array of sweet roasted veg to make this beautiful Easter dish. It also happens to be vegetarian and dairy-free so keep this recipe up your sleeve for those with dietary requirements. Any chewy grain, such as farro, bulgur, or even brown rice, can replace the barley. See method
