Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Spread the farro out onto a rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven until it smells nutty, about 7 minutes. Add the toasted farro to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and toss with the raisins, lemon zest and juice in a large serving bowl.
- Toss the asparagus with 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the tomatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Remove the asparagus from the oven and add the tomatoes to the baking sheet. Return to the oven and roast until the tomatoes begin to blister, about 3 minutes more.
- Toss the roasted asparagus and tomatoes with the farro along with the parsley. Top with the ricotta salata and serve.
FARRO SALAD
Farro, an ancient grain, has long been a common ingredient in Italy, but it is now gaining in popularity in the United States. You can use farro to make a type of risotto or in soups, but dressed with a lemony vinaigrette, it makes a lovely grain salad, enhanced by a variety of green vegetables.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over high heat. Add green beans and snap peas, and cook for 1 minute. Fish out the beans with a spider, mesh strainer or slotted spoon. Rinse briefly in cool water, then blot on a kitchen towel and set aside.
- Add farro to the pot, and cook until al dente, 15 to 20 minutes, then drain and spread out on a baking sheet or platter to cool.
- As the farro cooks, make the vinaigrette: Put shallots in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, lemon juice and zest, and leave for 5 minutes, then whisk in olive oil.
- Season the farro lightly with salt and pepper. Drizzle with half the vinaigrette, toss and mound.
- Slice the asparagus in very thin, lengthwise ribbons with a thin-bladed knife or mandolin and place in a medium-size bowl. Add cooked green beans, snap peas and thick slices of avocado. Salt lightly, add remaining vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.
- Arrange dressed vegetables over farro, garnish with basil leaves and serve.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND FARRO SALAD
This superfood salad uses the ancient whole grain farro as its base, it has a nutty flavor and satisfying chew (not to mention eight grams of fiber per serving). To compliment and add texture to every bite, stalks of asparagus are grilled, chopped, and tossed in along with lemon zest, almonds, fistfulls of dill and scallions, and briny feta cheese. Great on its own as a vegetarian meal, this recipe can also serve as a formidable co-star to any grilled chicken dish.

- Place the farro in a large pot, and cover with the vegetable stock. Bring to a boil over high. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the farro is soft yet still chewy, about 25 minutes. If there is any liquid left, drain. Let farro cool.
- While farro cooks, place the block of feta in a shallow bowl. Top with 1/2 cup olive oil, chopped mint, lemon zest and juice, 1 teaspoon garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Using the back of a fork, mash the feta into small chunks. Set aside.
- Bring a small pot of water and kosher salt to a boil over high. Add the green peas, and blanch just until the peas are tender yet still crunchy and bright green, about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Drain immediately, and let peas cool under cold running water. (Cooling the peas quickly is important to stop them from overcooking and to keep the vibrant green color.)
- Heat a large skillet over high. When skillet is hot, reduce heat to medium, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and remaining 1 teaspoon garlic. Cook until aromatic, about 10 seconds. Add the sugar snap and snow peas. Season 1/2 teaspoon sea salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and cook, shaking the pan every now and then, until the peas are crisp-tender and bright green, 3 to 4 minutes. (A little bit of charring on the peas is great.) Remove immediately, and spread in a single layer to let cool to room temperature. (If left in a pile, they will discolor.)
