Ingredients

1 cup pearled or semi-pearled farro
¼ cup red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic
2 teaspoons honey
2 cups cauliflower florets
2 cups chopped radicchio or red cabbage
6 ounces sliced hard salami, cut into strips (1 1/2 cups)
1 cup sliced red bell pepper
1 cup sliced celery
½ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions

Cook farro according to package directions, about 30 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
Whisk vinegar, oil, garlic, and honey in a large bowl.
Bring 3/4 cup water to a simmer in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add cauliflower; cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to the bowl with the vinaigrette.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
