This is a really fun recipe to put together. I used left over lamb from a roast instead of ground lamb. I also misread the ingredients and used ricotta cheese, instead of "ricotta salata" with which I'm not familiar. I made it in a casserole dish instead of a 9x13 - I think with the amount of vegetables it would have been really hard to make 2 layers in such a big pan. The spaghetti squash makes a wonderful substitue for pasta in what would have been a lasagna type dish. Very flavorful and we will definately make again!

I loved this recipe. I'm always looking for whole grain dishes, and this is a wonderful way to cook barley. During the last 30 minutes of cooking we put our flounder filets on top of the dish, and it made a great main course.
