Barley and Mushrooms with Beans

A simple and tasty vegetarian dish. Good as a meal, side dish, or wrapped in a tortilla with cheese. I always make a double batch and freeze some.

Step: 1

Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and stir in mushrooms, onion, celery, and garlic. Saute until tender.

Step: 2

Mix barley and vegetable broth into the saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat. Simmer 45 to 50 minutes, until barley is tender.

Step: 3

Stir white beans into the barley mixture. Continue cooking about 5 minutes, until beans are heated.
