1 1/2 cups farro
3 bunches flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
4 to 5 Persian cucumbers, chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, sliced

1/4 – 1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
What to Do:
In a medium size pot, boil 5 cups of water with a half teaspoon of salt.
Rinse farro, add to boiled water and simmer until farro is al dente, or about 20 to 30 minutes
Drain excess water from farro
