Salad with Smoky Sheet Tray Roasted Vegetables & Barley

17 Comments August 14, 2018 FrugalHausfrau

A bit of cooked Barley was the “by-product” of my Healthy Lemon Ginger Barley Water recipe awhile back. Well, if you know me, you know I try to waste nothing, and sure didn’t want to waste a morsel of wonderful, chewy, nutty Barley. (I love it, and so should you, btw! It’s really good for you!) And so I went on a quest and that quest ended in this Salad with Smoky Sheet Tray Roasted Vegetables & Barley. It’s a lot to use a cup of Barley, huh?!

I’m betting you’ve had Horiatiki Greek Salad before, even if you don’t know what the heck it is! I didn’t even know Horiatiki was the proper name, and there’s a proper way to make it. If you’re like me, it’s the cucumber & tomato salad that’s so ubiquitous (look at me with the big words, today!) all over the US. And in Greece, of course, where it originated.

I can hardly wait for the summer tomatoes to make big, gorgeous salads. And this one qualifies. It’s a straight up play on the classic BLT…behold the Bacon Lettuce Tomato Salad.
