The Many Benefits of the Ancient Grain Farro!!!!!
Farro was a diet staple in ancient Rome, it was even used as currency! Farro also packs 7 grams of fibre in a 1/4 cup (dry) serving...I love it in a salad with tomatoes, mozzarella and basil, topped with lemon juice and olive oil! I first had farro in Italy and brought back several bags home with me. Since then I have been able to find it at a specialty food store (Vincenzo's). Be sure to purchase the semi pearled farro! It is an excellent source of protein, magnesium and iron as well as fibre!!!!
