From Fork You Live: Live Salad

Salad
(I made a double batch the day we filmed that episode, so feel free to double this if you want more)

1 cup of barley, cooked and cooled (barley gets cooked at a 1:3 ratio, so 1 cup of barley to 3 cups of water)
1/2 seedless cucumber, cubed
1/2 red onion, chopped
4 ounces (approximately) of feta cheese, cubed or crumbled (depends on your taste)
1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Dressing
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons hone
3/4 cup olive oil
salt
pepper

Mix the barley with the dressing and let it sit while you chop the veggies. Combine and serve over greens.

The addition of red/orange/yellow peppers to the salad is also delicious.
