Cooking Steps

Roast Brussel sprouts and onions
1

Halve Brussels sprouts (if larger, quarter them). Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces. Add Brussels sprouts, onions and 1 tbsp oil to a parchment lined-baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender, 20-22 min.

Cook farro
2

While veggies roast, add farro, 1 tsp salt and 3 cups water to a medium pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook uncovered until farro is tender, 16-18 min. When farro is done, drain and set aside.

Toast sunflower seeds
3

While farro cooks, heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add sunflower seeds to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer sunflower seeds to a plate and season with salt.

Finish and serve
4

Whisk together half the balsamic glaze and 1 tbsp oil in a large bowl. Add farro, roasted veggies and dried cranberries. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Transfer veggie and farro mixture to a serving dish. Sprinkle with sunflower seeds. Drizzle remaining balsamic glaze over top, if desired.
