Health and fertility benefits of Barley Chili Recipe
Barley is about the best grain a woman with PCOS can eat. It is low in calories and has the lowest GI of all grains. Low-GI grains such as barley take much longer to digest and create a slow, steady rise in blood glucose and insulin levels. As mentioned before on Fertility Chef, low-GI foods reduce cravings. If possible, try and find hulled barley as it is the most nutrient dense of all types of barley.

1 small onion, chopped

1 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
