Chewy farro combines with the typical ingredients for a Greek salad for a yummy picnic dish or packed lunch. Instead of farro you could use wholegrain spelt or wheatberries.

- Combine the farro and water in a saucepan. Bring to the boil and simmer until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes. Drain any excess liquid, then set aside and allow to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, combine the vegetables and herbs. Season with salt and let sit while the farro cooks.

Farro Tip
I cook the farro in my rice cooker. Simply combine the farro and water, turn on the cooker and wait until it's done.
