I love this salad... Pepperoncini, Feta and Barley Salad (with beans too 1 1/2 cups water 2/3 cups uncooked quick-cook barley (you can use normal barley too it just takes longer to cook) 1 cup (4oz) feta cheese: sundried tomatoe and basil is good if you can find it 1 cup halved grape or cherry tomatoes 1/2 cup chopped pepperoncini peppers 1/2 cup chopped bottled roasted red peppers 2 Tbsp chopped fresh basil ( or to taste) 1 Tbsp cidar vinigar 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil 1/2 tsp minced garlic ( or to taste) 1 (16oz) can navy beans, drained and rinsed
Boil the water..cook the barley until cooked (about 10-18mins). Rinse under cold water and drain well. Combine everything together in a large bowl and toss well. It makes 4 servings....each with about 317 cals ( depending on the amounts of cals in the brands you buy) I like to take a whole wheat pita, cut it in half and stuff the pockets with the salad. It's very fresh!!! Hope you enjoy it! |

Hey, I actually already have everything tagged....and even when I'm in my tagged recipe area and click on the recipie there is nowhere to edit the recipe like there used to be...I can only edit the tags (which I don't need to do)...this has just started to be a problem (and I do it often)...I haven't had any problems before today. |

| Health & Support | Do I really need to fast before having bloodwork done?? | May 04 2009 04:03 (UTC) |

Hi there, I'm a nurse and just thought I'd answer your question... Fasting before having your cholesterol/triglycerides checked will give you an accurate idea of what your blood levels truly are. When you eat food the nutrients are absorbed into your blood stream ( including glucose/ cholesterol)...so if you eat before the blood test it will not be as accurate. If you're not sure what they are testing for you should ask!!! You can never ask too many questions!! Take something with you to eat once your test is done!! Hope this helps, good luck! |

It's not too late to add it in !! Just find the food that you ate...when you chose to add it to your log you can change the date at that time. Hope this helps!! |
