Kale and Farro Salad

Kale and Farro Salad

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. In a small saucepan, toast the farro over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Turn the heat off and add 2 cups of salted boiling water to the farro. Turn the heat back on and return to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Farro should have a slightly chewy texture when done. Drain the excess water. Set farro aside in saucepan and cover to keep warm.
  3. Whisk together the tamari, olive oil, and sesame oil.
  4. Spread the kale on a large baking pan and pour 3/4 of the tamari dressing over the kale. Use hands to massage the dressing into the kale.
  5. Bake kale at 350 for 5 minutes. Sprinkle almonds over the kale, give a quick stir, and bake for another 5-7 minutes, until almonds are toasted and kale is crispy.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the farro with the kale and almonds. Mix in the remaining dressing and serve warm.
