Ingredients
Scale
- 1 C cooked farro (we added salt, pepper, and 1 chopped clove of garlic to the water as it cooked)
- 2 crowns of broccoli, cut into 1 inch pieces.
- 2 C chopped beets
- 1/2 C olive oil, divided
- 1/2 C cashew pieces
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 lemon
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black coarse ground pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Line baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Place cut broccoli in a medium bowl and toss with 1/4 c olive oil and peeled garlic cloves.
- Bake in oven for 20-30 minutes or until you get a "charred" appearance.
- In a small sauté pan, place cashews over medium high heat and toss with a couple drops of olive oil and cook tossing frequently for 3-4 minutes.
- Combine remaining olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, crushed red pepper, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
- Remove garlic cloves from baking tray and place in bowl with dressing and smash with a fork and mix to combine.
- In a large mixing bowl, add cooked broccoli, farro, beets and cashews and toss with lemon dressing.
- Serve Warm
Notes
- char = flavor: roast broccoli until the edges are brown and crispy. That deep, smoky flavor is what makes this broccoli salad stand out from the rest.
- make ahead: prep all the components ahead of time and store them separately. Assemble just before serving, or toss it together and keep it chilled. It's also great cold the next day.
