Arugula Tomato Salad With Feta And Walnuts Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN FARRO SALAD WITH ARUGULA AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Cook the farro. Bring 3 cups of water, seasoned with kosher salt, to a boil. Add the farro and lower the heat to medium. Simmer for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the kind of farro you are using. The farro will have absorbed the water but use a sieve to fully drain. If you like, spread the farro on a tray or sheet pan and pat dry with a paper towel.
• Make the dressing using this Greek salad dressing recipe.
• Toss the salad together. In a mixing bowl, combine the farro (still somewhat warm) with the arugula, tomatoes, onions, peppers, walnuts, and fresh herbs. Pour the salad dressing, then toss well. Taste and adjust seasoning. Finish with a sprinkle of feta cheese to your liking.

• Top with grated Parmesan cheese and lightly toasted pine nuts.
