Ingredients

Servings   4   Serving Size   1 cup farro, 1 1/2 cups roasted veg and beans, 2 tablespoons salad dressing

For the Farro

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup farro (rinsed)

For the Vegetables

  • 1 medium sweet potato (cut into 1/2-inch cubes)
  • 1 small red onion (cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
  • 1 zucchini (cut into 1/2-inch cubes)
  • 1 yellow squash (cut into 1/2-inch cubes)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (15-ounce) can no-salt-added kidney beans, drained and rinsed

For the Eggs

  • 4 large eggs

For the Dressing

  • 1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons low-fat buttermilk
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives (roughly chopped)

Directions

Tip: Click on step to mark as complete.

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with foil and place it in the oven while it preheats.
  2. For the Farro: Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add farro, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until tender, about 20 to 25 minutes. Drain, then rinse with cold water to cool.
  3. For the Vegetables: Meanwhile, toss sweet potato, onion, zucchini and squash with oil, salt and the black pepper. Remove baking sheet from the oven and coat generously with non-stick cooking spray. Spread vegetables out evenly onto prepared baking sheet. Roast, stirring once halfway through cooking time, until vegetables are fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven, add the kidney beans and stir to combine. Return baking sheet to oven and cook an additional 5 minutes.
  4. For the Dressing: Add the yogurt, buttermilk, garlic, chives, parsley, spinach, tarragon and salt to the bowl of a small food processor and blend, scraping down the sides as needed, until smooth. Transfer to a bowl then cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  5. For the Eggs: Bring a small saucepan of water to a simmer over medium-high heat. Use a spoon to gently drop eggs into water; cook for 8 minutes. Drain carefully using a slotted spoon and place eggs in an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, peel and slice eggs in half.
  6. For the Bowls: To serve, divide farro and spinach among serving bowls. Toss vegetables and beans with 1 tablespoon dressing and distribute among bowls. Top with eggs and drizzle bowls with remaining dressing.
