Barley is also incredibly easy to incorporate into your everyday diet. For instance, you can use it as a side dish instead of couscous or white pasta. Barley is also a great alternative to white rice dishes such as pilaf or risotto.

For a unique, yummy, and healthy twist, add barley to desserts — barley pudding and barley ice cream are just two options.
