Mushroom Barley Pilaf Recipe
Mushroom Barley Pilaf

This is from Alex Jamieson's book, "The Great American Detox Diet". The original called for vegetable stock, as she's a vegetarian. We prefer to use chicken broth for flavor.(BTW, an interesting fact: If you are not familiar with her, Alex is now the wife of Morgan Spurlock, the documentarian who did the movie "Super Size Me". She watched in horror as her then-boyfriend's health deteriorated alarmingly during the 30 days during which he ate only McDonald's. As soon as the filming was done, Alex treated Morgan with the "detox diet" in her book to return him to health. However, it's not really a diet that's being advocated in her book - it's more of an "antidiet", a return to eating whole, healthful foods.)
