Is that a scensible > thought? > Ang I just looked up how many calories barley has and for 1/2 C of uncooked barley is 370 cal. I'm not overly concerned about calories and I would add it if I liked it as much as you do. It's a healthy food, thats for sure. I think having a healthy portion is more important. Do you eat a lot of game? It's a healthy choice since it's so lean Enjoy your supper! Tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how much does that swell up to when you cook it? Barley is like beans, you start with a half cup of little dried things and end up with a pan full when you're done.
