1
Cook rice, pasta and barley according to package directions.
2
When they are finished cooking cool them by placing them in a large strainer and running cool water over them, mixing them with your hands to let the heat escape and the water cool them throughout.
3
Once they are cooled, let them sit for a few minutes to drain well.
4
Place them all into a large bowl.
5
Add olives, beans, artichoke hearts, sun dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers (you can use fresh red bell peppers if you would rather) and Asiago cheese and stir to combine.
6
In a separate bowl combine the dressing ingredients; Mayo, yogurt, lemon juice, salt, dill, chives and olive oil.
7
Mix well and then pour over salad ingredients.
8
Stir to coat salad completely.
9
Chill in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before eating.

I prefer letting it chill for several hours so that the flavors can marry for a little longer.
