As a diabetic, I find that Barley really keeps my blood sugar level. I came up with this recipe to use as a side dish to replace rice. This side dish works really well with beef. Ingredients:
2 large yellow onions |
3 tablespoons butter |
1 1/2 cups medium pearl barley |
2 cans chicken broth |
1 (11 1/2 ounce) can tomato juice |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. 2. Cut the onion into a medium dice. 3. Saute in a non-stick skillet with the butter until you start getting those browned edges. 4. Pour the barley into the skillet and coat with the onion and butter mixture. 5. Spray a medium size casserole with cooking spray. 6. Transfer the barley to the casserole. 7. Pour the chicken broth and tomato juice into the casserole. 8. Do not place a lid on the casserole. 9. Bake for 60 to 75 minutes until the liquid is absorbed. 10. Fluff before serving. |
