Recipe by: Alison Meyer

Slice the tomatos in half crosswise and scoop out seeds. Set the tomatos in a baking dish that will hold them upright but not squeezed together. Cook the barley in water until soft, about 20-30 minutes, and drain. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Mix the barley with remaining ingredients in a bowl and stuff mixture into tomatos. Bake for 30 minutes.
