Bird Flu Update

Bird flu is spreading among birds, cattle, and some mammals, including cats. While it’s not a human pandemic, backyard chicken owners and pet parents should take precautions. Experts at UCHealth urge caution, but for now, the risk to most people is low.

🍲 Instant Pot Mushroom-Barley Stew

Instant Pot Mushroom-Barley Stew

Recipe by Forks Over Knives

This easy recipe calls for hulled barley, which provides more of the whole grain than pearled barley. Apart from its nutritional benefits, hulled barley also delivers a meatier texture and satisfying mouthfeel that will satiate even the most staunch carnivore.
