Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 lices sourdough bread
  • pinch salt
  • pinch black pepper
  • pinch garlic powder
  • 1 cup farro 1/2 cup dry farro, cooked
  • 2 kale small bunches black/lacinato, spines removed & chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup candied pecans Sante Nuts brand
  • 1/2 cup goat cheese crumbled
  • 2 cups brussels sprout thinly sliced
  • 1 apple we used a honeycrisp apple, thinly sliced

Olivia Wilde Salad Dressing

  • 2 tbsp grainy mustard or dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 6 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey liquid
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper ground
  • 1 garlic clove, grated
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes

Instructions

  1. To prepare the croutons, preheat the oven to 375F. Cut 2 slices of sourdough bread into cubes, drizzle with olive oil and season with a big pinch of salt, pepper and garlic powder. Bake until golden, about 10-15 minutes.
  2. To prepare the farro, cook as per your package instructions, cooking it to your preferred doneness. Set aside, cool slightly.
  3. To make the dressing, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk. Set aside.
  4. To prepare the kale, add a tablespoon of olive oil and massage with your hands for about a minute. (The point of massaging the kale is to break down some of the tough fibres, making for a more tender salad).
  5. Add your farro to a large serving plate or salad bowl. Add the chopped kale, brussels sprouts and croutons. Arrange the goat cheese, candied pecans and thinly sliced apples on top in a beautiful arrangement.
  6. Drizzle the dressing over, toss and serve.

Notes

  • Enjoy this recipe as a main topped with your favourite protein (serves 4) OR serve as a side dish for up to 6 people.
  • If you don't have time to make croutons, use your favourite store-bought brand. Or, substitute with another 1/2 cup of Sante Nuts Candied Pecans.
  • Don't want to use honey? Substitute with maple syrup in the dressing.
