Ingredients : Nutrient-Rich: Creamy Pearl Barley & Vegeta Recipe
6 cup Vegetable/chicken stock
1 1/2 cup Dry white wine, or stock
1 3/4 cup Pearl barley
1 tbsp Olive oil
2 cup Mushrooms, sliced
1 Onion, chopped
1 Garlic clove, minced
2 cup Sweet potato, diced
1 tbsp Fresh thyme

3 cup Small broccoli florets
1/2 cup Parmesan, freshly grated

Combine vegetable stock and white wine. In large, heavy saucepan,
combine 3-1/2 cups of the stock mixture and barley. Cover; bring to
boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring, for 25-30 minutes
or until almost all of the liquid is absorbed.
Uncover; stir in 3 cups of the stock mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time,
stirring until each addition is absorbed before adding the next, for
about 25 minutes or until barley is tender and creamy. Remove from
heat; cover and set aside.
Meanwhile, in large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat; cook
mushrooms, onion and garlic, stirring frequently, for 5-10 minutes or
until mushrooms are softened.
Stir in remaining stock mixture, sweet potato and thyme. Cover and
simmer over medium-low heat for about 8 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Add broccoli; cook for 6-8 minutes or until vegetables
are tender. Stir barley into mushroom mixture and heat through.
Sprinkle with cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
