Mediterranean Farro Salad with Sweet Zesty Lemonade Dressing

Step 1

To cook the farro: Bring the salted water to a boil and just as if you would cook pasta, drop in the farro grain and cook until it’s chewy and al dente—this may take up to 50 minutes. Farro has a nice chewy bite so it won’t mush up easily on you.

Step 2

Drain the cooked farro and place it in your salad bowl.

Step 3

Make the Lemonade Dressing: Add all ingredients in a glass container. Seal the container and shake it vigorously until well blended.

Step 4

Pour1/4 cup of the dressing over the hot cooked farro before adding the remaining salad ingredients—this adds plenty of flavor to the farro.

Step 5

Add the salad ingredients to the salad bowl and toss the salad well, then pour more of the dressing over the salad and toss again.

Step 6

Serve the salad right away and enjoy!
