Have you ever tried the ancient grain, farro?

It’s a nutritious nutty flavored grain that’s a good source of fiber, protein, magnesium, zinc and B vitamins. I found a recipe several years ago on a bag of farro and have adapted it a bit.

It’s a delicious Mediterranean salad! It’s great served with fish or chicken or even equally delicious on its own. You can modify the proportions of these ingredients to suit your taste. Enjoy!

• 2-3 cups cooked farro

• 1 pint grape tomatoes

• Red, yellow or orange pepper diced

• 1/4-1/2 Red onion diced

• 1/2 cup feta cheese (or more to taste)

• 1/4-1/2 cup Kalamata olives

• Garnish with Fresh basil

Mix all ingredients together and then toss with your favorite vinaigrette.
