Raise your hand if you like farro! For those that don’t know what it is, farro is a whole grain that has a nutty taste, similar to brown rice.  It is not gluten-free (although at times it is misleadingly marketed as gluten-free) but it does have LESS gluten than other grains.  This make farro a good choice for those with a gluten sensitivity but not for those with a gluten allergy.

    Lauren, thanks so much for the gluten tidbit. I have wanted to try farro, but have been hesitant because of my gluten allergy/sensitivity/whatever it is. I’ll have to try a little and see how it goes. This looks so yummy!
