This creamy vinaigrette is the perfect accompaniment to any power salad. Also add it to steak, chicken, or pork as a guilt-free condiment. For best food-safety practices, refrigerate vinaigrette (for up to 5 days) after 1 to 2 hours at room temperature.

PEARL BARLEY SALAD WITH FETA, TOASTED ALMONDS LEMON AND PARSLEY

Pearl Barley Salad With Feta, Toasted Almonds Lemon and Parsley image

This recently appeared in the Sunday Life magazine, as 'Freekah salad ..." by renowned chef Karen Martini. I couldn't find freekah - and Karen recommended pearl barley as a 'perfect substitute'. The recipe calls for feta, but I've made it without and it was still delicious. I'm trying to lose a few kilos, so also omitted the oil - still yummy. Have it cold - or warm and season to taste. It goes perfectly with the Greek lamb dish I've posted - also by Karen Martini

CREAMY GARLIC, PARSLEY, AND FETA DRESSING

Creamy Garlic, Parsley, and Feta Dressing image

We suggest pairing this garlicky dressing with mixed greens such as Boston lettuce and watercress, or drizzling it over grilled tofu or chicken for a light yet satisfying meal. If you prefer a milder dressing, cut back the garlic to two teaspoons. Recipe adapted from Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health, in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
