Really liked this. I will reduce the butter by half next time and increase the mushrooms by another 1/2 cup. (I used the crimini mushroom, for more flavor) The pine nuts kind of got lost in this so I probably won't bother with them next time. I used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth. Reminds me alot of mushroom risotto.

Great dish with lots of uses. I added a grated carrot along with the onion, added more scallions and mushrooms and because I was concerned about the reviews that thought it was bland, I added a whole tablespoon of dried basil and used chicken broth. Served it with Chickpeas in Tomato Sauce With Feta and Wine from this site and it was very satisfying--whole family thought it was great! My tomato/mushroom hating son picked out the tomatoes but didn't even realize there were mushrooms in the bake : ). As an added bonus, the leftovers will be a good start for a soup!

My husband and I LOVE this recipe!! It's a welcome change from the usual rice pilaf or potato dish. The Barley Bake is healthy, can easily be varied with different veggies if you so choose, and is always a winner! Thanks for a great recipe...

Amazingly good. I omitted the pine nuts due to an allergy in the family, and it was still yummy. I also substituted vinegar for lemon juice. Next time I plan to reduce the amount of butter by half. A nice alternative to rice or pasta side dishes.

Five stars because my kids all loved it. Very good recipe as written, but I can see how one might want to add some other vegies and spices. I made it as written and enjoyed it very much with grilled chicken. I love pine nuts and always have a bag in the freezer. This is a much better side dish as far as nutrition and fiber go. Try it...you'll like it!

very very good, made this when a vegetarian friend came over for dinner...went very well. It did need additional bake time to absorb all the liquid. 1 hr 45 min seemed to be about right.

I left out the butter completely and used cooking spray. I was out of mushrooms so I added shredded carrots and celery. I also added garlic and used white onions. Quite good and easy.

Nice way to incorporate more healthy grains into the diet. I used portabella mushrooms and chicken broth instead of veggie broth. Good with a green salad. Also backed off the butter by about 1/2 in the interest of health.

I used to make this years ago, and was super excited to find the recipe here! Thank you! I always left out the mushrooms, and instead of regular onion I used the white part of a green onion or shallot... Provides a little milder taste and if I recall, I used about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of chopped green onion. This dish was one of my all time favorite side dishes. I usually made it for company as a side dish to a chicken and avocado in cream dish and served it with warm cranberry scones! It was always a hit. Thanks for posting it!

Nice recipe that we will make again. I would not consider this "super special", but it is a nice side dish for times when you want something a little different.

Whatever you do, don't use Quick Barley. Notwithstanding, the dish was rather bland.

Snaps for Kat! What a great way to cook barley. I did alter it a bit, I used chicken broth and almonds and red onion. I also used a 1/2 bag of broccoli slaw mix from the produce section and only 3 Tbls. of butter. Even my very picky 15 yr. daughter loved it and that makes it even better!!!

This is a really good vegetarian side dish, especially for a pot-luck. It seems to be missing some sort of spice though, still need to figure that out.
