Barley & Bow Tie Pilaf
"From Safeway Pearl Barley Package - "This is such a tasty dish and it's effortless to prepare because the farfalle pasta (bow ties) bakes right along with the barley. It makes a nice change of pace from rice and potatoes, with any meat, poultry, fish or vegetarian meal." Pilaf may be refrigerated overnight. Bring to room temperature and reheat in the microwave"

This is fantastic. I was a little leary because I thought the pasta would be too mushy, but it's great. I also thought that that was a lot of green onion, but it's just right. The timing is perfect as well. The only thing I changed was to use half beef and half chicken broth, because that's what I had. I will make this again for sure. Delicious! Made for Newest Zaar Tag. Thanks! -
My husband and I use this recipe all the time as a side dish for summer grilling - it's DELICIOUS!
