Instructions

Cook farro
1
  • Add farro, 1 tsp (2 tsp) salt and 3 cups (6 cups) water to a medium pot.
  • Cover, then bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook uncovered until farro is tender, 16-18 min.
  • Drain, then return farro to the same pot, off heat.
Roast sweet potatoes
2
  • Meanwhile, peel, then cut sweet potato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Strip 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) rosemary leaves from the stem. Finely chop.
  • Add sweet potatoes, rosemary and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven until softened slightly, 10-12 min.
  • Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven.
  • Drizzle half the maple syrup over sweet potatoes, then toss to coat. Continue roasting until tender and golden-brown, 8-9 min.


Toast walnuts
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add walnuts to the dry pan.
  • Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on walnuts so they don't burn!)
  • Transfer toasted walnuts to a small bowl.
Prep remaining ingredients
4
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Core, then cut pear into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Whisk together mustard, vinegar, remaining maple syrup and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil in a large bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then whisk again to combine.
Finish farro and make salad
5
  • Add parsley and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to the pot with farro. Season with salt and pepper, then stir until butter melts.
  • When sweet potatoes are done, add arugula and spinach mix, pears and sweet potatoes to the bowl with vinaigrette. Toss to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide farro between plates. Top with salad.
  • Sprinkle with walnuts, then crumble goat cheese over top.
