Strawberry Summer Salad

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups farro
  • 2 cups strawberries
  • 4 cups baby arugula
  • 1 large cucumber
  • 1/2 cup feta crumbled
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tbsp balsamic glaze

Instructions
 

For the Farro

  • Farro cooks similar to pasta. Fill a large pot with water and salt it generously. Cook until tender, but not mushy. (cook time depends on the type of farro you have!) Strain the farro and spread it onto a baking sheet to cool. This prevents it from overcooking. After about 20 minutes, set aside for a recipe or store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Dressing

  • This "dressing" is quick, easy and delicious. Into a large bowl with your arugula, add 2 tsp of lemon juice, 1 tsp olive oil, 1 tsp of honey and a pinch of salt. Toss your arugula until it is evenly coated.

Assembly

  • Chop strawberries and cucumbers into small cubes. Toss all ingredients together and top with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Enjoy!
