How to Make Sweet N Tangy Barley Bowl
- **Make the Dijon Dressing:**
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until the honey/maple syrup is fully dissolved.
- **Prepare the Salad:**
- Cook 1 cup of barley according to package directions. Rinse under cold water once cooked.
- While the barley is cooking, dice 1 medium apple (leave the peel on).
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked barley, 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken (cubed or shredded), and the Dijon dressing. Gently toss to ensure the barley isn't clumped.
- Add the diced apple, 1/2 cup chopped celery, and 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional). Gently toss to combine.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. This salad is even tastier after the flavors have melded for a bit.
- Yields: 4 side dish servings or 2 main dish servings.
