PreCook ½ cup barley in 2 cups water for about 20 - 30 minutes.

Clean and trim 1½ pound fresh green beans peel (or not) and cube 2 pounds (or so) white or red skinned potatoes chop 2 medium sized onions.

Place barley and vegetables in large pot or casserole with about 2 cups water or veggie broth, salt and pepper to taste, add about 1 teaspoon dill weed. Simmer or nuke until vegetables are tender.

This is good served immediately and is also really good reheated. Makes a good take to work lunch, too.

I think mushrooms would be an excellent addition to this, will add them next time. If you hate dill, use tarragon or chives or......
