Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup farro I used ]Bob's Red Mill farro, dry
  • 1 ¾ cup water
  • 4 ounces turkey breakfast sausage cut into ¾-inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2 garlic minced, cloves
  • 6 ounces kale stem removed & roughly chopped
  • cup Montmorency tart cherries dried
  • teaspoon salt
  • ¼ avocado sliced

The Dressing:

  • 1 tablespoon lime juice fresh
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • ½ teaspoon honey or agave nectar
  • salt pinch

Instructions

  1. Combine the farro and water in a medium saucepan set over high heat. Bring to a boil, lower heat to medium low and simmer until the farro is al dente, about 30 minutes. Drain off any extra liquid.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. Cook the sausage until browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium and heat the olive oil in the large skillet. Add the garlic into the small pool of oil and cook for 1 minute.
  4. Stir in the kale, tart cherries and ¼ cup chicken broth. Cover the skillet and let the kale wilt, 3 to 4 minutes.
  5. Divide the farro, sausage, kale mixture and avocado between two bowls. Drizzle the dressing over top. Serve.

The Dressing:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, hot sauce, honey (or agave) and salt.
