Shopping List

  • 3 cups cooked Farro (about 1 cup uncooked)
  • 1/2 can (about 1/2 a cup) drained artichokes from a can
  • 1/2 lemon zested and juiced
  • 5 Sundried tomatoes
  • kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper
  • 2 scallions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup Sundried tomatoes, julienned
  • 1/2 cup quartered artichokes from a can, drained (the other half of the can)
  • 1 cup baby spinach, julienned
  • 2 tbsp capers

Method

Set aside the cooked Farro (cook per package instructions; I use Bobs Red Mill Farro).

In a food processor or blender, blend together 1/2 cup artichokes, 5 sun dried tomatoes, 1/2 lemon juiced and zested, and salt and pepper. The mixture will be thick and paste like. Set aside. Season to taste.

In a bowl, combine the Farro, the paste you just made, and the rest of the ingredients and toss. Serve immediately or cover and chill until ready to serve.
