Ingredients:

1	cup	Cooked barley
1	cup	Cooked garbanzo beans
1/2		Green pepper, chopped
1/2		Red pepper, chopped
1		Carrot, cut into bite-sized
		Pieces
1/2		Onion, sliced
		X Chopped mushrooms (use your
		Favorite amount or none at
		All)
2	large	Cloves garlic, crushed
1	can	Vegetable stock (I used Hain
		Fat-free veggie broth) Or 2
		C Stock you've made yourself
		X Cumin
		X Tabasco sauce
		X Black pepper
		X Tamari
		X Salt (just a bit)
		Lemon juice

Procedures:

1	Toss the carrots into a hot wok and cook for a few minutes, add the garlic, onions and green peppers, deglazig the pan with water or tamari.
2	Add the mushrooms and cook just until the mushrooms start giving up their liquid.
3	Add the garbanzo beans, barley, and vegetable stock.
4	add spices to taste.
5	The tamari really worked well in this, but i only used a tablespoon for the whole recipe.
6	The black pepper and tabasco gave it some "kick" and i threw in the cumin because i like the flavor.
7	Add these in small amounts if you don"t like things really hot.
8	I ended up having something that was too hot because i accidentally threw in too much tabasco (i used the lemon juice to counter it, and it was fine).
9	The salt is optional.
10	I put in just a touch.
11	you can add more water and/or water/tamari mix if you want to make it a little soupier.
12	cook it until it"s really hot and serve over toasted whole wheat bread, like a sloppy joe.
13	Even though it"s been warm during the day here in the northeast, we"ve still had some cool evenings, so hot food has been okay.
14	This is good served with fruit salad or tossed salad.
