Spray your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Combine the orange juice, water, barley, cranberries, apricots, dates, apple, allspice and nuts in your slow cooker. Stir.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours, or until the barley is tender and has absorbed the liquid. (It may appear a little thin, but will thicken up considerably as it cools a bit.)
Serve warm.
Recipe Notes
Not a fan of apricots? Skip them or use another favorite dried fruit instead.Out of orange juice, substitute apple juice.I'm looking forward to playing with different combinations.Serving size: ½ cupClick here to see your WW Points for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.6*SmartPoints (Green plan)6*SmartPoints (Blue plan)5*SmartPoints (Purple plan)4*PointsPlus (Old plan)
