This recipe and combination of flavors make for a true flavor punch. Healthy, quick, make ahead, and delicious, this dish truly has it all. Moreover, it’s a salad that seems to get better as it refrigerates.

Best of all, this salad comes together quickly and is allergen friendly. It’s a great side dish to include at your next barbecue or brunch, or can be served with grilled chicken or salmon for a healthy and delicious meal.

Don’t have an ingredients, no worries! This salad is great for substitutions and works well with any fresh vegetables you have on hand. So read below on how to make this healthy and delicious Farro Tabbouleh Salad.

Farro Tabbouleh Salad

Farro is an ancient grain that hosts a bunch of health benefits. But if you are not a fan, you can always substitute quinoa, barley, or bulgur. These ancients grains are thankfully now grocery store staples, so you should have no problem find them. If you wanted to order online, Amazon has Bob’s Red Mill Farro in bulk for a great price.

I was able to find par-cooked Farro at Trader Joe’s and it only took 10 minutes to boil. Once the Farro is cooked, just set aside to cool before adding the rest of the ingredients.

Next, add all of the chopped veggies to the bowl along with the Farro. Lastly, prepare the simple dressing and toss with the veggies and you are all set!

Farro Tabbouleh Salad holds up excellent in the fridge and can last about 5 days. Add grilled chicken, salmon, or tofu, and you have a complete meal.
