Despite my sweet teeth, I mostly prefer savory for breakfast. If grains and veggies are not your daybreak cup of tea, try this salad for lunch or dinner. It tastes the same.I made this as a single serving but double or quadruple. It keeps well for a couple of days and travels nicely too!
Ingredients
1/4 cup barley, cooked
1 pickling cucumber, chopped
Handful of cherry tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon dill, chopped
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon-ish red wine vinegar
1 oz feta, crumbled
Salt
Pepper
Combine barley, pinch of salt & up to 1 cup water. Boil & reduce to simmer, cooking until it's just slightly chewy. Drain excess water if there is any. Cool slightly & combine all other ingredients. Adjust pepper, salt & vinegar to taste. I like to assemble it when it's warm. You could add red onion or chives, but even I don't indulge at breakfast. :)
