Hi there, just discovered your blog and have added 3 of your meals to this weeks meal plan. I just made this recipe and both me and my husband were soooo impressed. My husband said its 5 stars and restaurant worthy! Just blew our minds! Absolutely perfect! I did want to mention that for fresh herbs in the recipe it doesn’t say cup or tbsp, I did 1/2 cup and that worked. Thank you for your beautiful blog!

Would you believe that I’ve only had one bite of a fresh fig, ever? I’m going to hunt some down so I can make this gorgeous salad.

I love recipes like this that use a simple formula for goodness as its base – you can never go wrong and you are guaranteed a salad that is never boring!

oh gosh, i feel ya. I just had to throw out a few small bags of spices because i couldn’t tell what they were – they were all just red and pungent, which didn’t really narrow it down.

and just the other day, i mistakenly grabbed a container of what i thought was bulgur but turned out to be (i think) steel cut oats. what a goopy mess.

but farro, man, it’s so lovely.

Oh yes – I recognize this formula very well. It’s a near-weekly lunch salad design in my house too, but I’m absolutely envious of your beautiful figs. Hooray for a trip!

I’ve been cooking with farro a lot lately, but have yet to try wheat berries! Looking forward to giving this awesome recipe a shot! 🙂 Hope I can find some fresh figs soon!

I have so many versions of wheat berries – some spelt, some farro, some the typical wheat.. I think I also have emmer… nearly out of barley so I will have to resort to them when I want to make a risotto-type dish.. unless I make this salad first! Looks great! Definitely want to find some figs now. 🙂
