- 1 bunch kale
- 1 head radicchio
- 1 recipe lemon miso dressing see below
- 1 c toasted walnuts
- ½ c Parmesan cheese grated
lemon miso dressing
- 1 lemon
- 1 tbsp white miso
- ½ c extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions
- Cook farro: add farro to medium saucepan and cover with a few inches of salted water. Bring to a boil, reduced heat, and simmer uncovered until farro is tender (check your farro packaging for cooking times as there are a few different types of farro). Drain and let cool slightly.
- As the farro cooks, prepare the veggies. Remove large stems from kale and thinly slice. Core and thinly slice radicchio.
- Make the dressing: whisk together juice from 1 lemon and miso in a jar or small bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Add sliced kale to large salad bowl and toss with ⅔ of the dressing. Gently massage the kale for about 1 minute to soften. Add radicchio, farro, walnuts, Parmesan, and remaining dressing. Mix well and serve.
