I purchased farro a while back after eating (and loving) this Farro salad made by Miranda of The Crunchy Radish. It sat in my cabinet for a while until this week when I decided to incorporate it into my lunch concoction. I basically combined all of the ingredients in my fridge with this lucky farro. Check out the recipe - it was delicious!
Ingredients (and I encourage you to add/subtract things as you see fit!):
- 4 persian cucumbers
- 10 radishes
- 2 scallions
- 1 shallot
- 1 orange pepper
- 1 firm mango
- Cup of sliced cabbage
- Cup of slivered almonds
- 2 cups of farro
- 1/4 cup of chia seeds
Dressing
- 2 lemons
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 teaspoon honey dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon of honey
Boil and cook the farro. It's just like making quinoa - easy peasy.
Wash and cut the veggies and mango into bite size pieces. Combine the farro in a bowl with the veggies and mango. Add dressing. Voila! You have yourself a delicious meal.
