    Lemon Zucchini Salad

    Written by Living the Gourmet, a trusted food and lifestyle site since 2008.

    The crickets are serenading the evenings. They sing their hearts out, each with its own song.  I love the songs of the crickets.  I leave the windows open and let the breeze flow through with the lovely songs of the crickets singing me to sleep.

    Ingredients:
    4 zucchini - roughly skinned and sliced
    4 - 5 cloves of garlic - chopped fine
    1 medium red onion - chopped small
    4 stalks celery - chopped small
    ¼ cup fresh Italian parsley - chopped
    ½ cup instant barley
    Lemon slice for garnish
    For the Dressing:
    Juice of 2-3 lemons
    ½ cup olive oil
    ½ tsp. red pepper flakes
    1 tsp. salt
    1 tsp. dried oregano
    Cook barley as directed and set aside.
    In a large bowl combine all of the ingredients for the salad.  Add the cooked barley and toss.
    In a small bowl prepare the dressing and stir.  Add to the salad and toss.
    Garnish with a lemon slice.
    Enjoy with Love,
    Catherine
