Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups uncooked farro
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (~ 3 lemons)
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 16 oz frozen shelled edamame, defrosted
  • 1/3 cup red onion, diced finely
  • 2 loose cups basil, chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta crumbles - as garnish

Instruction

  • Cook farro according to package instructions.  I find that adding more water than needed and draining it off like pasta makes the perfect farro.  Cool drained farro and set aside in a large bowl.
  • Bring a small pan to medium heat and add the pine nuts to pan.  Toast ~ 2-3 minutes or until fragrant and brown.  Careful - pine nuts are expensive and burn easy so don't walk away from the pan!  Set aside on a plate.
  • In a small bowl mix together lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper to make a dressing.
  • When farro is cool add defrosted edamame, red onion, basil, and pine nuts.  Toss with the dressing.  Garnish with feta crumbles.  Add salt & pepper to taste.  Happy Eating!  Beckie
