Cold Farro Salad
#1
This is really one of those things you can easily "wing-it" with.
I use Italian pearled farro and this stuff is a main staple in my house. Easy to make and really good hot or cold. You can find it in your "health / organic" section of your supermarket.


calories: 236 per 1/2 cup

Serves 5

ingredients:
  • 1 cup farro - prepared and cooled
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped coarse
  • shredded carrot (about 1/4 cup give or take)
  • 1/2 tart-ish apple (fuji, macintosh, pink lady, winesap)
  • handful coarsely chopped unsalted walnuts
  • handful coarsely chopped craisins (dried cranberries)
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon Juice
Follow instructions on the package of farro and cook and cool to room temperature.
You can run this through a strainer under cold water and then let dry for faster cooling if you want. I put mine in a bowl with some paper towels underneath to speed up drying a bit.
Add your ingredients and then throw a drizzle of olive oil and splash some lemon juice  (this prevents the apples from turning brown). You don't want this too "lemony" so go a little at a time.
Chill and enjoy!
