To prepare for this year, I did more than just fancy up a classic, I decided to implement a whole new dish with this salad. Farro is a common Italian grain that is acclaimed for its nutty flavors and chewy texture. Its hearty, delicious, and can stand against any super grain in the nutrition department.
