When we don't have spare time but we are hungry, I recommend salads. They are universal. You may prepare a salad with meat, a vegetarian salad, a salad only with vegetables or fruit, add groats, noodles or cheese. There's something good for everyone.

Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a salad with fruit, pearl barley, chili pepper and feta cheese. Such a salad is equally satisfying and light, and we like it even on a busy day.

Ingredients (for 2 people)
100g of pearl barley
100g of feta cheese
a fistful of raspberries, a fistful of blueberries, a fistful of blackberries, a fistful of wild strawberries
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
chili pepper
2 tablespoons of maple syrup
3 tablespoons of olive oil
1 small clove of garlic

Chop the chili pepper. Crush the garlic. Mix the olive oil, lemon juice, maple syrup, garlic and chili pepper. Leave for a while. Boil the pearl barley in salty water. Wash the fruit and crush the feta cheese. Mix the pearl barley with half of the sauce. Put it on a plate. Arrange the fruit and feta cheese on top of the pearl barley. Sprinkle with the rest of the sauce. Decorate with peppermint or basil leaves.

Enjoy your meal!
