Nutritional values

Barley not only provides complex carbohydrates, satiating fiber, and nerve-strengthening B vitamins, but also valuable minerals such as potassium, zinc, phosphorus, and magnesium. The cheese provides plenty of protein and calcium, which is good for muscles and bones.

Eating vegan? Then simply replace the cheese with sliced smoked tofu. The soy product also provides a lot of protein.
