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.
