Note: You can cut down on the cooking time by soaking your farro prior. If you've let it sit overnight, expect a meal that's ready in 20 minutes or less! Unsoaked grains may require about 30-40 more minute of cooktime but will still be worth eating when they're finally done - - Once the farro is cooked,
- - add it to a large bowl along with the cherry tomatoes, chopped basil, olive oil, pine nuts, red wine vinegar, arugula, chosen herb, salt, and pepper.
- - Toss everything together until evenly mixed.
Serve immediately or store in the fridge for later.
Enjoy!
