Warm Grain Salad

Warm Grain Salad

with Barley, Avocado & Burst Tomatoes

We love a good grain salad - it's all about the mix-ins! Here, we're tossing in creamy butter beans, silky avocado, and burst grape tomatoes for a fun mix of colors and textures. Torn basil adds a touch of lemony freshness for the perfect finish.

Instructions

Boil barley
1

Place barley in a large pot with 4 cups of water, stock concentrate, and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for about 20 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside.

Tear the basil leaves
2

Meanwhile, halve the tomatoes. Tear the basil leaves. Drain and rinse the butter beans. Thinly slice the shallot.

3

Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing, for about 5 minutes, until slightly softened. Set aside.

Halve and pit the avocado
4

Meanwhile halve, and pit the avocado. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon and thinly slice. HINT: You can slice the avocado halves in the skin with a paring knife and use a spoon to scoop out the slices!

Add balsamic vinegar
5

In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 tablespoon dijon mustard (or more to taste), 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss in warm barley, avocado, butter beans, shallot, and tomatoes. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
