Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Heat oil in very large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add onion, garlic, corn and Swiss chard; cook, stirring frequently, until onion is translucent and Swiss chard is tender, about 5 minutes.
Stir in tomatoes, barley, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper; heat through.
Coat a 2 1/2- to 3-quart baking dish with cooking spray. Spoon barley mixture into prepared dish in an even layer; sprinkle with cheese.
Bake until cheese melts and mixture is hot, about 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing into six pieces.
