Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup farro
1 large tomato, cut into chunks
1 English (hothouse) cucumber, halved, seeded, and cut into chunks
1/2 red onion, diced
1 yellow bell pepper, halved, cored, and cut into chunks
1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives
6 large basil leaves, torn into pieces
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 2 lemons (1/3 cup)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2-ounce block Greek feta

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the farro, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cover. Simmer until the farro is tender and the grains have split open, about 20 minutes. Drain and rinse with cool water. Put the farro in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the tomato, cucumber, onion, bell pepper, olives, and basil. Toss with the oil and lemon juice; season with the salt and pepper. Toss the salad to evenly distribute the ingredients. Put the salad on a nice oval platter, break up the feta with your hands, and scatter the chunks on top. The farro salad can be made a day or two in advance.

This salad was easy to make and turned out great! I used quinoa instead of farro and it was still delicious. The dressing was a little too acidic for my taste, so I added a bit of honey to balance it out.
