  3. Shave Parmesan cheese with a vegetable peeler and add to dressing.
  4. Add farro and mix well.
  5. Fold in greens, herbs, tomatoes, and radish.
  6. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
Recipe Notes

Add 1/2 cup raw seeds like sunflower, sesame, chia, or flax to the salad with the farro for extra crunch. Or try it with nuts like walnuts, almonds, or pecans!
