You have roasted barley, an orange bell pepper and a well-stocked pantry. What are you making?

This is a hard mode challenge.

If you don't understand how a cooking challenge works you can just keep scrolling. I don't pester you about circle jerk etiquette.

    I literally could not survive on meals like that at my size.

    Your cooking "challenge" may well be butter and small sticks.

    What meal did you envision that includes, but is not limited to, those two ingredients?

    I totally get the concern on calories. What if you boiled the barley, and added it to some canned tomato sauce, chili powder and ground beef to create a chili? Use the pepper with some onion as your sauted veg base for the chili. All your nutrients and calories and both ingredients used.

    At this point the challenge is basically meaningless.

    If I can literally select anything that I want to go with an ingredient or two there's unlimited possibilities.

    Those ingredients you've listed have literally become meaningless based on the lacking constraints of the problem.
