About Farro pesto salad

Farro Pesto Salad is a hearty dish combining the nutty chewiness of farro, a wholesome ancient grain, with the savory richness of fresh basil pesto. This Mediterranean-inspired salad often includes cherry tomatoes, arugula, and toasted pine nuts for added texture and flavor, while a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese ties everything together. Farro is a nutritional powerhouse, packed with fiber, protein, and essential vitamins, offering sustained energy and digestive support. The pesto brings healthy fats from olive oil and nuts, though its richness means it’s best enjoyed in moderation. Fresh vegetables provide antioxidants and phytonutrients, adding vibrant color and health benefits. While generally nutrient-dense, its calorie content can rise with excessive oil or cheese. Balanced yet indulgent, Farro Pesto Salad is a vibrant option for those seeking a satisfying and nourishing meal influenced by Mediterranean cuisine.
