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
  • Meanwhile, 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

  • 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.
