Barley Salad with Grilled Chicken, Cranberries and Dill

After cooking barley for the first time this summer, I was hooked. Barley is so easy to cook and unlike most other salads, this salad keeps a few days in the fridge without getting soggy. It’s a robust salad, great for a picnic or as a weekday lunch. I’ve tried quite a few variations and found that barley works with almost anything you have on hand. Try this version first though because it’s delicious!
