Good soul food, and very kind to my insulin levels. I use Soy milk and maple-flavored agave syrup on mine. :-) Way better than oatmeal. - 1/14/13

The pears add a nice sweetness to the barley. I thought that was a bit too much cinnamon though. Next time I will halve the amount. Used regular barley (not quick cooking), so mine took about half an hour total + 1/2 c more of water. Also, the calorie count is way off. Mine had only 182 calories! - 3/6/10

It didn't say what to do with the milk, I'm assuming you added it with the water. I tried this with Bartlett pears and regular barley and a touch of vanilla and it was simply wonderful. My husband said it's much better then regular oatmeal, and I have to agree. What a nice breakfast! - 3/28/07
