Farro Salad with Zucchini and Pine Nuts
Potlucks, picnics, and summertime dinners can be so fun, but sometimes the food options get a little repetitive and dull. Farro is an ancient grain with a nutty flavor and chewy texture that loves to soak up flavor. When tossed with lemon juice, vegetables, and some olive oil it comes alive. This recipe calls for roasting the zucchini, but you could always thinly slice raw zucchini, or use grilled too. For your next event, grilled chicken, or fish, try making this salad. It’s fresh, full of bright flavors, and far more interesting than pasta doused with a bottle of Italian dressing.
