Roasted Veggie Barley Bowl

February 20, 2026 by Dinner Tonight

This Roasted Veggie Barley Bowl features barley, an ancient grain that’s naturally high in fiber and rich in beta-glucan, a type of soluble fiber that supports heart health.

Barley’s nutty flavor pairs perfectly with roasted vegetables, making this a simple, satisfying way to add more whole grains and fiber to your plate during Heart Health Month. Small swaps, like choosing ancient grains, can make a big impact over time.
