Lemon, Ginger, Barley Pudding with Raspberries

Makes 6 servings

If you love rice pudding, then wait until you taste this barley version that offers you all of the creaminess that you love with some extra whole grains and a little less of the not-so-good-for-you ingredients. For a more traditional flavor, leave out the ginger and skip the sauce.

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
