1 10 ounce can diced tomatoes with green chiles undrained -- I used Rotel
1 cup uncooked fine barley
2 cups fat free less sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup frozen corn kernels (I used a whole cup)
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 TBLS lime juice (I used lemon)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 garlic clove minced
******************
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
tortillas
shredded cheese
salsa
sour cream
Place the first 11 ingredients up to the **** in the crock pot (3-4 QT) stir well
cover and cook 4-5 hours on low until liquid is absorbed.
stir in cilantro.
fill tortilla as a normal burrito and add your sour cream and salsa.
I used more spice than they said. I don't really measure. I used a palm full of cumin and chili powder plus a little extra for good measure and about a whole teaspoon of cayenne. I used a heaping tablespoon of minced garlic in a jar.
Kyle was surprised that just one burrito filled him up. He also said if he had not known in advance this was a veggie night he didn't think he would have noticed there was no meat.

Im going to make this! I have never had barley before though? I have decided that I need to start using my slow cooker, Im a vegetarian so this will be great (ill use vegetable stock)! I only really know how to make meat in my slowcooker, I guess I have to learn some recipes. Thanks for posting!
I will totally be making this one too! It sounds delish, and I'm also a vegetarian. Thanks for posting it!
