Onion Barley Casserole

By: Elaine Kremenak 
"MY HUSBAND and I grew up on plain hearty foods, and we both learned early on that simple food, well prepared, maintains good health. I always felt I was giving my family the best when I prepared this dish. They loved the nutty flavor and chewy texture of the barley, and it was a delicious departure from rice as a side dish. --Elaine Kremenak Grants Pass, Oregon"
