Good Morning !!!!!
Today I propose a recipe different from the usual ones, and I flashed in mind one day that I did not know how to cook barley.
As a cereal that does very well and also replaces the flesh, it’s good to introduce it in the diet, as an alternative to the usual cheese or meat, Here the receipe :

ps: These are are approximately for 10 meatballs, depending on the size you want to give.
I didn’t intentionally wanted to add grated cheese because there is already enough in pesto. Just breadcrumbs and will be tasty!
Good peaceful weekend to everybody!
