Servings: 5 Prep time: 10 min Cooking time: 30 min
Ingredients
½ cup farro (or quinoa for GF)
2 cups filtered water
1 ½ cups (2 medium) tomatoes
1 cucumber
1 avocado
1/8 red onion
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 lemon, juiced
¼ cup fresh parsley
¼ tsp pepper
¼ tsp salt
Directions
Bring a pot of water to boil, then add the farro. Reduce the heat to simmer and let the farro cook until softened, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, dice the tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and onion to roughly the same size. Add the chopped veggies to a large mixing bowl.
Roughly chop the parsley and add it to the bowl with the veggies.
Add the feta, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
When the farro is cooked, strain it and allow to cool. Once cooled, add to the bowl and toss everything to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Notes:
To make this recipe gluten free, substitute farro for quinoa or whole grain rice.
