Steps:
- In a large pot, combine barley and about 2 quarts water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until cooked al dente, about 30 minutes. Season generously with salt and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and cool.
- In a bowl, combine red onion, olive oil, green pepper, vinegar, capers and garlic. Add to barley and toss. Add watermelon, black-eyed peas, tomatoes, cucumber, feta, parsley and dill, and toss again. Serve cold or at room temperature as a main course or, if desired, with grilled shrimp or chicken.

GREEK-STYLE WATERMELON SALAD
It's not an immediately obvious combination - watermelon, cucumber, olives and feta - but one bite will leave you convinced that this savory-sweet summer salad is something truly special. The astringent punch of the olives and feta provides a sophisticated counterpoint to the watery mellowness of the melon and cucumber. With a hunk of bread, it's a lovely light lunch; with practically any grilled meat or fish, it's an ideal summer supper.

WATERMELON SALAD
Recipe from a restaurant called Iron Barley here in St. Louis. They say this recipe is for 2 dinner size entree portions. If you are going to serve it as a side dish it will serve 4, but they recommend you cut the watermelon in smaller pieces if doing smaller salads. Cooking time is actually marinating time. NOTE: I served just the marinated watermelon as a side dish (didn't put it atop greens nor did I use onions) and it was great with BBQ meat!!!

Steps:
- Mix first six ingredients in a deep-sided bowl. Drizzle and whisk the olive oil into the mixture to emulsify. Set aside.
- Mix the watermelon and red onion together in a large bowl.
- Pour the dressing over the melon, turning to coat all sides. Return it to the refrigerator and let the melon marinate for 20 minutes or less. NOTE: I cut my melon very small and it was best after about 5 minutes in the marinade!
- Layer the field greens on a small dinner plate.
- Place the chunks of watermelon (allowing some of the dressing to transfer to the lettuce) and the onion in the center of the greens.
- Grind pepper to taste over the salad.
