Ingredients

2 cups chicken broth
1 cup orange juice
1 cup medium pearl barley
1 medium orange

1/3 cup sliced green onions
2 tablespoons butter
10 thin slices deli ham
1/2 cup orange marmalade

Mix marmalade and ginger; spoon over the rolls. Sprinkle with the pecans. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 5 servings.
