Couscous Salad

This is such a refreshing summer dish. I don't have the amounts to most of this stuff, just use your judgement as to how much of each ingredient to put in.

Cook up Israeli Couscous (about 2 cups)
Stir in a good amount of olive oil and place in fridge covered to cool.
Chop up mint leaves and cilantro stir into couscous
Add minced garlic and sea salt
Stir in:
feta cheese
garbanzo beans (1 can)
grape tomatoes (halved)
balsamic vinegar (a splash)

Chill in fridge

water
seasoning: garlic, caraway, rosemary, thyme, parsley, sea salt, pepper
Braggs Liquid Aminos
1 pot of cooked barley (I cooked 1 cup barley with 3 cups water)

Chop up vegetables and place in bowl
Dump bowl into crock pot, fill same bowl with same amount of water
Add seasonings and Liquid Aminos
Cook on high 2 hours

Add chicken, cooked barley (may have to break it up), 2 quarts of chicken broth.
Add more seasoning if desired.

Cook on low until heated up.
