GREEK FARRO SALAD

This quick and easy to make salad will be a hit at those summer picnics and
barbecues. Super flavorful and full of fresh and healthy ingredients!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup chopped spinach
• ½ red onion
• 1 cup chopped peperoncini
• 1 cup sliced Greek olives
• 1 cup chopped artichoke hearts
• 2 tablespoons fresh oregano
• Himalayan pink salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 cups farro
• fresh cherry tomatoes cut in half (optional)

note: You can use dried oregano, but only use 2 teaspoons as it is stronger than fresh. I added fresh cherry tomatoes on the vine the second time I made this and it added a touch of sweetness to the dish that we loved. My husband added red wine vinegar on top and loved that addition too.

Instructions:

Begin cooking farro in a medium pot according to package directions (will cook for about 25-30 minutes).

As farro is cooking, wash and chop spinach. Chop onion, pepperoncinis, olives and artichoke hearts. If using tomatoes cut in half.

When farro is done cooking, drain and rinse with cold water. Transfer to a bowl and add all ingredients. Mix well and enjoy!
