Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the farro with 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon salt in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes, adding more water if needed. Drain and pour into a large bowl.
- Place the red pepper slices on the prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 teaspoons olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Roast for 20 minutes, turning once halfway through. Set the peppers aside to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Pour over the hot farro, stir well and cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- Add the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, parsley and olives and roasted peppers to the bowl with the farro. Stir until combined, then gently fold in the feta. Serve at room temperature, or store in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days, before serving.
GREEK FARRO SALAD
This is a great alternative to a cold pasta salad as farro doesn't get soggy and holds up to the dressing very well. Farro is an ancient Mediterranean grain, so I wanted to merge it with a Greek-style salad that's perfect for summertime. This is great served with grilled lamb or chicken. Add black olives or fresh herbs to your liking!

Steps:

- Bring liquid to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently, until tender, about 35 minutes for whole grain farro or about 20 minutes for pearled farro.
- Drain farro, rinse with cold water, and set aside to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
- Whisk 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, Greek seasoning, and garlic together in a large bowl. Stir in tomato, cucumber, red pepper, red onion, and feta cheese. Stir farro into tomato mixture until completely coated with dressing; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate salad for about 2 hours before serving.
