No, I have not made this yet, but it looked really good. I'm planning on it sometime next week.
Maybe someone here will get around to it before me and post what they did.

(10,170 posts)Let me know how it goes. I have been trying to get into different grains than I usually eat. I like grains, but I'm trying to be more wheat avoid-ant.
Costco has a great granola called Ancient Grains that has very little wheat and what wheat there is has Khorasan in front of it. Tasty stuff anyway. Was eating it like popcorn watching a movie last night.

I heard a story about how they messed up the wheat with some variation where they could get twice the yield.
Then, of course, anyone I've known who has been able to get it out of their diet tells me their waistline melts away.

(14,487 posts)Dijon mustard and Worcestershire are on the ingredients list, but not in the directions, so I just beat them in with the eggs and milk.
I also thought there was not enough barley in the recipe. I halved the recipe, but left the barley amount the same. I'll let you know later how it comes out!

(14,487 posts)I used spinach instead of swiss chard, and as I mentioned above, I used more barley. Yum!

(10,170 posts)I will copy them, but I'm going to double the barley and use try kale as the green.
Thanks for pioneering the recipe!
