Ingredients

Farro Bowl

  • 1/2 cup farro pearled/semi-pearled, cooked in broth
  • 1 cup kale rough chop, stems removed
  • 2 tbsp feta crumbled
  • 10-12 small carrots or 2 large carrots cut in 1 inch discs
  • 1 tsp thyme fresh
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • salt & pepper

Harissa Roasted Tomatoes

  • 12 oz vine cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 tbsp harissa
  • salt & pepper
  • red chili flakes optional for extra spice

Harissa Tomato Dressing

  • 2-3 tbsp harissa tomato juice from harissa tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • salt & pepper

Instructions

Harissa Tomatoes

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In a roasting pan combine tomatoes, olive oil, harissa, salt, pepper, and optional chili flakes. Toss until tomatoes are thoroughly covered in harissa spice mixture.
  • Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until tomatoes are wilted and most have popped open.

Roasted Vegetables

  • HACK: To ensure that your carrots are fully cooked when roasting and do not burn pop them in the microwave for 2-3 minutes to partially cook them.
  • On a separate roasting pan or sheet tray, toss carrots in a tsp of salt, pinch of pepper, thyme, and 1/2 the olive oil. Roast at 400° for 20-25 minutes at the same time as the tomatoes.
  • In the last 3 minutes, toss kale in olive oil and a tsp of salt and pop on roasting pan. You want to wilt the kale, not brown it.

Harissa Tomato Dressing

  • In a small bowl or measuring cup take harissa tomato juice, and combine it with lemon juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix vigorously to combine. Depending on how juicy the tomatoes were if you have more than 2-3 tbsp feel free to add another tbsp to the dressing.

Assembly

  • Mix farro, feta, and kale. Dish out, top with carrots, tomatoes, and serve with harissa tomato dressing. This dish can be served hot or at room temp.
